I was reading a thread on destroying illegal guns and got to thinking, if a man were to take a "parts kit" for some of the really interesting and historically important guns which are illegal due to NFA law, and were to do an exact copy of the original reciever EXCEPT never cut the magazine slot into the reciever. Exact outside dimensions, exact internal dimensions, just forget that magwell cut. Externally finished to accept a magazine which would not fit due to the feed lips hitting the un-cut reciever slot. Of course you would have to make a dummy mag by chopping off the top 1/4" or so so it looks correct.
Is this a legal, fires from blowback, single shot replica? Is this a legal nightmare that would be construed as constructive intent for a machine gun? It's technically not a XXXXX, but it sure isn't far from it. I'm thinking about guns like the greasegun or sten
