spend about $15,000 on a registered drop in auto sear.


key word being REGISTERED..therefore legal.

why is it $15,000? Because there have been none legally produced since may 19, 1986...thanks to the FOPA ban on domestically produced machine guns.

You'd have to purchase a registered pre 1986 full auto lower. I haven't priced one lately but I would say they are at least $7,000 today.

And yes, you can convert a semi into full auto today. However, I'm willing to bet the ATF would be up your ass before you emptied the first magazine.

add about 3-4k to get in the ballpark for a low end conversion


Mine was 13k when i bought it last year, i've seen similar ones selling for 14-15k recently.

Eh, I took a stab at it - either way I'm not dumping that kind of cash anytime soon into one.


To the original poster - I suggest building your own suppressor while you're at it so that that nobody can hear you shooting full auto.
