THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
I saw this on another forum.

For sale:
Registered Lightning Link conversion for all Armalite/Eagle Arms AR-10 Varients. All that is needed is to send me your bolt carrier, lower reciever and registered lightning link. I will make the appropriate modifications, time and test run before sending back. Currently only doing Armalite/Eagle Arms type AR-10s. Working on other variants.

All NFA laws apply.

$XXX

I thought the atf doesnt allow RDIAS & RLL to be installed in AR-10s..

Thats news to me

the only actual letter i have seen is for rdias not RLL

you need to mill the shit out of the lower, the bolt, and upper. This goes for a DPMS.
Do not email me please, I will not get it. IM me only for the time being..

Thanks Chas

go to post 17 in this thread it shows a rll drops right into an armalite lower

all you would need to do is mod the bolt just like a 9mm bolt and make a taller paddel

In the RDIAS letter, they said the AR10 was a different class of weapon, so that is why you couldn't use one to convert it to full auto. I'd go with the ATF having the same view on the RLL, but I guess someone could write them a letter. That would double the price of RLL's over night.

And relieve the lower where those lines are drawn, so the link has room to move.

We need to stop writing letters before NFA tells us we can use them in SP1s only.

RLL was made to convert the AR15 platform.. The AR10 is a differnt platform. I doubt anyone would question it unless you write a stupid ass letter to the ATF tech brach to see if its ok.

Don't worry someone WILL have to write a letter for clarification!

The "SWD AR-15 Automatic Connector" was designed specifically for the AR-15.

The original paperwork on the RLL states

"WARNING: These auto connectors are designed to be used in Colt AR-15's ONLY. You must have all COLT AR-15 Internal parts."


Putting it into a AR-10 may get the BATF's panties in a bunch and a possible charge for creating a new unregistered machine gun.

I love it when people go around posting my scan without attribution like the yahoos at hk94.com . I did that for quarterbore.
