You should stand before him with your hands on your hips. Laugh uproariously - LOUD! - and point your finger at him.
"You are just a Jarhead!" you should say. "You are a simple creature, with simple ways. You know not of what you speak! Hey, everyone! See the Jarhead! He thinks he knows stuff! Aren't they cute when they think they know stuff? LOL (literally say "ell oh ell")! Ha-Ha! Silly Jarhead!" |

My neighbors BIL asked me how to file down the firing pin and sear on an AR to make it go full auto.
My expression: 
I told him I don't know and I will never try it. |

Dumbass. You file the tip of your firing pin to a nice sharp point to get full auto.

Quoted:
Do you send in the $200 BEFORE or AFTER you file the sear? you do it halfway through filing because it nullifies constructive consent and preemptive production you're supposed to do the entire thing while you have the ATF and NCIS on a threeway call the general rule of thumb is that it's illegal unless they can hear it |

I'm not even sure that it could be made to work with my understanding of how the fire control group works in an AR, but it would more than likely result in a runaway situation where it would not stop firing until it was out of ammo.
 Not exactly a desirable way to go full auto. if you ask me.

I've heard the exact same thing from my roommate, a former Marine. Also heard a real zinger from one of his co-workers about a year ago, he was former army I believe, anyways, apparently if you jam a nickel or dime or some sort of coinage into the receiver by the trigger or some shit, it will go on uncontrollable bursts and sometimes full auto

Anyone who has screwed up a trigger job knows that you can get a gun to meet the legal definition of a machine gun by screwing up the sears. The gun wouldn't be much fun that way, it would just double or fire short bursts occasionally.

Not exactly a desirable way to go full auto. if you ask me. Without a sear trip mechanism, it would ony create hammer follow and turn the gun into a single shot malfunctioner (filing the disconnector). Filing the sear engagement surface would make the gun fire on a trigger pull, then on the release of the trigger.... the problem would be getting the gun the gun to fire the first time, since the sear holds the hammer back. The end result is, filing on your parts will only yield a malfunctioning weapon. |

I'm pretty sure it would start firing as soon as you released the charging handle and continue firing until the mag is empty or you have an out-of-battery explosion, whichever happens first.

Yep. When you chop off the top of the sear in the AK, it will be slam-fire full auto... not exactly safe |

I've seen an AK burst fire when the spring retainer wasn't holding the trigger pin in. The ARs I've only seen not fire when incorrectly installed, never full auto/burst without a DIAS or FA FCG.

Quoted: Without a sear trip mechanism, it would ony create hammer follow and turn the gun into a single shot malfunctioner (filing the disconnector). With ammunition with soft primers, an AR with an M-16 fire control group will fire bursts without the auto sear. I've seen it happen. The momentum of the hammer is enough to dent the soft primers. |

Somehow, in my AR, in the long-ass time I didn't have an upper for it, the springs got all screwed up on the pins, and the trigger pin walked out, disabling the disconnector. As a result, when I was test-firing it, it would double, then quit (from hammer follow). Now, my springs are properly oriented and the pin is held in place. Zero problems since

I bought a Colt SP1 around 2000. Had retired federal LEO/gunsmith rebuild it with new Colt barrel/bolt/slabside upper for me. He took it to range to test fire and it emptied the 30 round mag. Problem was the pistol grip screw was too long and protruded into receiver causing the rifle to slam fire. No sear was filed.
