Alright guys, I'm glad I have your attention!

Here's the problem, I'm in a law school class for gun control law. There's a debate on whether possession of a full auto sear alone (without a Class III license) is illegal or whether you need the corresponding gun along with it.  Same question for silencers.

What about a sear that has been modified to have a crisper/lighter trigger pull, except it that has been modified to the point that it fires full auto, however it is no longer on the gun and is sitting in a drawer collecting dust?  

Keep in mind these were all hypos in class, so don't send the ATF nazis after me!  

Then how can places like "Cheaper Than Dirt" get away with selling 4-position selectors???

I was planning on getting one of these for my (issued) M-16 in case my unit get mobilized.

It's a good thing that big brother takes the needed measures to keep these things out of the hands of servicemen like me... [rolleyes]
