I cant find a name on this one its from Great Brition
I've seen folks do stupid stuff like that at ranges and gunshows. Most of the time they won't listen to reason either.I remember a while back someone was selling a AR Pistol with a fore grip attached on GB.
Wouldn't that be entrapment and an illegal bust? I mean a cop can't just come up to you and sell you a stolen watch then bust you for it. How would this be different?Wonder which ATF agent thought this one up...
ignorance is not a legal excuse.
Yes sir, no full auto parts...especially the receiver.If one bought this and built it to only have semi auto parts inside would it still be illegal?
It was most likely an AIMS-74 receiver with 4 selector positions: Safe (unmarked) - full auto (the infinity symbol) - 3 round burst - single shot.jojo200517 said:I'm wondering why it had a 1 and a 3 beside the marks. Is there a such thing as a 3 round burst on an ak? I thought they were either semi auto only, or semi and full auto selections.

I think Aaron's right about this. If you knew and were willing to commit a crime then it's not entrapment. If an undercover agent were selling the AK receiver, I think he/she would want to document an exchange where they said something offhand about it being a machine gun. That would give you the rope to hang yourself when it went to court.I'm not sure. Female undercover cops pretend to solicit sex so they can arrest would-be johns. How would this be any different (that's not rhetorical, I'm really asking)?
