That's ridiculous. If I use my fingernail, I can remove the magazine and the rifle can accept another one.
That's like saying if a magazine is in your Glock, it cannot accept another one.

Exactly.

Lets at least agree that some of us do not have the ability to accept each other's opinions then?

Will, see what I did there?...

There is no law that says you don't have to in that case. There is a law however on the rifle.

You've been very angry lately.

I do agree, there are laws on rifles.

Actually no. I must have missed it.

Actually, since the other site tanked. You haven't been the same since. Not saying you miss the site, just stating the time line. You no longer post anything.

If the prosecutor is allowed to "gunsmith" the rifle, then a solid block of aluminum can be turned into an AW.
I see no difference between drilling out some epoxy, and milling a mag well from scratch. You haven't explained what you think the difference is.
Edit: this was supposed to be a reply to @Willjr75

You don't need to drill out epoxy in the bullet button. A nail and a good whack would puncture a hole and drop the magazine. Not that it matters. It's the same result.
Besides, the law doesn't say gunsmithing.
spat

Drill, or hammer and nail, it's still gunsmithing.
"No gunsmithing" is implied, otherwise *everyone* has an AW, even if they don't *think* they have any guns...
That's where the tool thing comes in. If you don't exclude gunsmithing (i.e. use of tools), then I can take any aluminum scrap you have lying around and turn it into a machinegun.

Does the law say semi automatic and the ability to accept a detachable magazine except via gunsmithing?
spat

OK, then the intake manifold on your truck is an AW once I get done with it.....
Marine Cpl
.577 Tyrannosaur.
There is no law that says ability to accept in regards to intake manifolds.

Once I melt it down and recast it into an AR receiver it can.
If you can use tools, where is the limit ?
Marine Cpl

Correct as long as the upper is semi automatic and together it functions as designed.

This is almost as bad as Facebook. Look boys, the simple truth is that unless you are running around a schoolyard with a compliant AR you won't be bothered.
After spending a great deal of time on this issue, this AUG won't be coming with me when I move back to NY.
However several like this AR will.
How you ask....... because it is fitted with a fixed 10 round magazine that requires tools to remove and will be loaded through the port with this neat gizmo.
The level of paranoia displayed on all too many gun sites is disconcerting. Any research on SAFE act charges finds they are mostly in urban areas and mostly were "add ons" to criminals arrested for other crimes.

Well that's that I guess, he's got it all figured out. Mods can close this thread now.

That has been debated already in previous posts and threads so why bring it up again? Regular non epoxied bullet button rifles were sold too back in 2013 and 2014. Now they aren't.
