already illegal. might as well stay that way. cant do much more than that.

good thing is they dont seem to be actually making the street more dangerous in any empirical way


More and more people are saying that the inaccuracy of people using switches is leading to more collateral damage but I mean if you shoot into a crowd of children with a regular pistol the results will still be bad yeah well….

im sure there is some marginal increase in bystanders hit due to them, but the phenomenon of actual switch shootings is probably not that large to begin with.

:heh: What do you want me to say?

We can't make them any more illegal than they already are. They're literally pieces of shaped plastic. They'll run into the same problem they have regulating DIAS devices and 80% lowers.

Just lock up the people who posess them in club fed. Most people het state charges that are very light. Fed penalties are 5-10.

If you can’t adequately regulate them aren’t you just making a case for legalization?

A safety is a shaped piece of plastic too amirite?

Just realized I didn’t post the link


Mother moves with her son to Vegas from Chicago so he can have a future and he ends up being shot in a random act of gang violence

These makeshift machine guns — able to inflict indiscriminate carnage in seconds — are helping fuel the national epidemic of gun violence, making shootings increasingly lethal, creating added risks for bystanders and leaving survivors more grievously wounded, according to law enforcement authorities and medical workers.

The growing use of switches, which are also known as auto sears, is evident in real-time audio tracking of gunshots around the country, data shows. Audio sensors monitored by a public safety technology company, Sound Thinking, recorded 75,544 rounds of suspected automatic gunfire in 2022 in portions of 127 cities covered by its microphones, according to data compiled at the request of The New York Times. That was a 49 percent increase from the year before.


Is the NYT blowing things out of proportion?

Alright but I would rather hear about parents beating their children with a switch than a cookout that turned into massacre because of a 30rnd with a switch


:patrice:


Does that make me a socialist?
Figured they should show them how to make a spatulas instead of switches

that's interesting you mention that, afaik DIASes/lightning links are almost never used for crime, despite them being just as easy to 3d print as switches and legal examples being in wide circulation. before the hughes amendment, machinists were pumping them out for the fukk of it - for example there are more FAL autosears on the registry than there were FALs ever imported - and they were so cheap back then that you couldn't give them away. my pet theory is that it's cause "R-DIAS" doesn't rhyme with anything so drill listeners don't know to ask their 3d printing plug for them. :troll:

so this is a made up number then, soundthinking/shotspotter's admitted in court to fabricating data "all the time."
i stopped reading after i got to the glenn thrush byline; he always fills his articles on this topic with falsehoods. it figures that a sexual predator like him would habitually publish lies to get firearms banned, he wants easy prey.
