Yes it is, unless you’re talking about building a trigger mechanism/lower from scratch...which ok if you have the technical expertise to pull that off then alright.

It’s seriously not that easy at all to modify a firearm to be full auto and it’s a GREAT way to cause a major malfunction and kill yourself. Even then you’re just dumping mags and it’s less useful than a bumpstock.

If you like your face how it is, don’t do that. That’s some microwave your cellphone/delete System32 shit.

If you have the requisite FFL/SOT and a bit of competence, the material conversion cost is <$1, depending on what you're talking about.

Funny story: A guy named George Dodson used to sell """***safety sears***""" in the back of Shotgun News[1], for about $100 bucks.

You can buy a M-16 LPK with auto sear for about $80. So long as you don't drill the hole for the 3rd pin it's completely legal. I just picked up a couple that were on sale over black Friday. Then again I also have a registered full auto lower...

I am going to yield here to avoid a discussion about illegal firearm manufacturing. But, yeah, I agree in that I would never fire a firearm that somebody did this to.
