smells like a trap

Post by jdasilva »

this video was suggested in my youtube feed advertising a device that you put in your ar15 that makes it full auto. They tell people to be cautious when using. Its pretty messed up that they would be marketing this to the united states knowing that this could put someone in prison for a very long time. I'll stick to my bump fire solution stock

If you bend their product, you have just manufactured a full auto weapon which is not legal. The video is from a year ago but the website was updated last week. Smells like a trap to me

Here is the video & website.

Looks like trouble to me. Like a different version of a lightning link from what I can deduce.

Now if someone entrepreneurial were to fly over the US and drop millions of them...

If it's legal to own, why is he concealing his identity? :roll: I hope the ATF shuts these guys down pronto!

Well the video was published over a year ago so if the ATF is planning on shutting them down they are taking their sweet time.

According to the description it's legal to own until you adapt it to your firearm.

Sounds like switchblades in some jurisdictions that have supposedly been legal to own but not to carry or legal to own but not to sell or legal to own if not assembled.

He is not selling a drop in part that will make a gun full auto. He's selling a piece of metal that won't do anything for you if unmodified. It's for "educational" purposes.

If they were to shut him down for selling an inert piece of metal then 80% lowers would have to go away and they might have to shut down Home Depot for selling washers and threaded pipes.

Anyway, I agree it's dodgy business but if all the facts are right it's hard to prosecute and convict someone before they break the law.

I like how in the video the guy typed......i didn't break any laws until I bent the piece of metal. he admitted in the video that it was illegal to make.

From the ordering page.

"Payment must be a Money Order (in US Dollars) made out to TCGTR, LLC with all Payor (From: field) information left blank."

So he wants the buyer to leave his/her name off the Money Order. That is very suspicious.

No thank you. I have no interest in losing my gun rights. If i wanted something like this a slide fire is close enough and is legal.

At least they have some modicum of decency in not
requesting a gullible doofus ... I mean potential client ...
to demonstrate good faith by including their SS#
and bank PIN. :) :)

Like that wonderful joke:

Q: "Why was Mustaffa Abdullah Camel Sniffer drummed out of
the Taliban?

A: "He kept burying IUDs* in the middle of the road."


* IUD = Intrauterine device/ not IED
