I concur.

I highly doubt it. I've seen many (several agencies' worth) LE modified (semi-auto) M16 receivers and normally they'll pull the autosear assembly and swap in semi-auto FCG parts. Never seen it done as shown because that's illogical and would require cutting.
I mod them for my agency, and I leave the autosear in place and just swap the selector for a semi-auto safety.
Initially, I was removing autosears, but I got tired of having to locate one if an officer gets added to our SWAT team (and therefore authorized to use select-fire weapons). Now I just have a bag of selectors hanging out in the armory.
