Illegal gun modification devices proliferate, resulting in more deadly rounds in Minneapolis
Deadlier guns turning up at more crime scenes, adding to toll on streets.

Auto seers and 3D printing are the real problem, not the foreign occupiers and their children.
For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

We imported Mogadishu, so now we have Mogadishu.  Pretty simple math.

3D printing sounds scary in newspapers, but a Lightning Link can be made with 12 ga sheet metal and nippers.

I do feel some glee about American wannabe tough thugs running headlong into people who had childhood in Mogadishu. I doubt they are impressed. Let them fight.

Here's a story out of Houston, also carried by the local Austin rag.

https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/crime/article/Houston-illegal-modified-fully-automatic-handguns-16532358.php

It reports that a lot of bad guys are getting switches for their pistols (probably Glocks) to convert them to full auto.

I've read similar stories before. Why do some people think ordering it from China - sometimes through Amazon - won't leave a paper trail the authorities can follow directly to their door?  :facepalm:

(And for people who just would like to mess with it for fun - is this type of fun worth a FELONY conviction?!?!)

And how many of these shitheads caught with full auto are thrown in prison for the 10 years you or I would get?

My guess is not a single one. They are caught and released. That’s why they don’t care about a paper trail they get no punishment.

Damn seers.  Prophecy should be registered and regulated.  Lay people cannot handle having access to threads of destiny.

Yep, an otherwise law abiding gun owner with zero criminal history would be probably be sentenced to years in prison. Meanwhile a common street thug with a 20 page rap sheet is released and already looking for their next target before the arresting cop's shift is over.
And guess which one the Ds blame for the rise in crime.

I am starting to think the authorities really don't check those sites.  I get FB ads for auto sear (AR and Glock) these days.  I bought one of those wish.com "fuel filters".  crickets.  (for the agents reading this site, Ima form 1 it, I just need more fingerprint cards.)

I report every one of those scam ads. Glock is ridiculous simple to make fa if you look how it works. As to why? Totally useless gun. Watched a dealer try to do a bowling pin shoot with a dealer sample. His plan was not bursts just mag  dump. Two thirty round mags and two pins hit.

I wonder what would have been the result if they'd placed a bunch of innocent bystander pins behind the target pins.

I had to look that one up. If you're referring to the infamous porcelain Glock, IMDB says McTiernan wasn't involved in making Die Hard II. Be pretty cool to have an undetectable, full-auto gun. Sadly, it costs more than I make in a month.  =|

You also misspelled Somali.  :P

Not referring to the porcelain Glock specifically, just action movies in general.  McTiernan produced a number of shoot-em' up movies over the years, and many folks acquire their expert firearms knowledge from those types of movies.

I can't figure out if misspelling "Somali" is racist because you're trying to tell a group of black people how to spell their own demonym, or if spelling things "correctly" is white supremacist patriarchy.  :O
