Is it legal to own spare parts for a m16? I know there’s some other owners around here
It's not just the lower. You don't need a lower with a hole in it, to go to prison.Is it legal to own spare parts for a m16? I know there’s some other owners around here
Aren't you in country right now? A quick look at the parts of your work weapon, during your next cleaning, will clear up a lot of what works and doesn't.You gotta love the contradiction on its face:
So, obviously a plain Jane ar15 lower cannot accept full auto FCG parts and thus cannot be a machine gun without modification and parts installed per the letter.
Later it says if you have a registered full auto lower and an extra parts kit and a ar15, you have two machine guns. Wtf
Then says if you own an ar15 we don't recommend you own the parts.
Thats the stupidest shit I've ever read. If they were serious, they would say "if you own an AR15 and the parts one would be in violation of xxx law." Fucking ATF and their nebulous interpretations and nom-committal answers.
I'm lookin at my 14.5" M4a1 fcg right now. You definitely need the FCG pocket milled to full depth much more to the rear for the finger on the auto sear to have room to contact the selector cam.Aren't you in country right now?

I'm not trying to be condescending, or imply in the least, that you are uneducated. (Not everyone knows about them Louboutin's)
And EXTREMELY unsafe. No noooooBut the safety, trigger, hammer, and disconnecter, will all drop in a 15. The safety having the cutout, will allow the disconnecter to be depressed, allowing the hammer to chase the bcg into battery. Pewpewpewpew OOB discharge
You know the agency being discussed is the same one that will line up all your BB guns and single shot shotguns for a photo op while they congratulate each other on taking your 'dangerous arsenal off the streets' right?Haven't done anything wrong, so they can't touch me.
That's why the "well, sort of"... They come in a a big team, with armored vehicles, in the middle of the night when you're dead asleep, and they control the media. STILL... when they get here, I ain't gonna have any "undocumented" machineguns for them to line up beside my bb guns.You know the agency being discussed is the same one that will line up all your BB guns and single shot shotguns for a photo op while they congratulate each other on taking your 'dangerous arsenal off the streets' right?
Because when they decide to come get you you're already guilty regardless of what they find.
The lightning link's legality is well documented. I have seen bottle openers with a similar design on them thoughOP totally fine. Look up lightning link, that requires a semi auto bcg to operate. Suddenly the rules are all wacky.

Is it legal to own spare parts for a m16?
State by state gun laws have nothing to do with possessing unregistered MG parts. I think its all been covered pretty well here, actuallyLots bad information in this thread. I'd suggest more research gentlemen. Start with with the gun laws for the state you live in. The original question was "
They absolutely have a lot to do with it. The FCG does not make a machine gun until you drill the 3rd hole. In Michigan and many others you can own the complete FCG, including the sear, they are just parts. You can not prove intent, they are just parts. There is nothing to register, the minute you drill the 3rd hole in a receiver you just made a machine gun even if you do not own the FCG to go in it. I'm guessing in Maine that is not the case, just like all the liberal states bordering NY.State by state gun laws have nothing to do with possessing unregistered MG parts. I think its all been covered pretty well here, actuallyI'd also wager a guess, that the OP could draw a conclusion to his inquiry.
