Conversion of Ruger 10/22 - -
The original thread replaces one of the same name which was started on 18 SEP by a member who asked the question, "What would i [sic] need to do to convert my 10/22 to fully auto?"
Predictably, several members replied with both, "You cannot do so legally," and one brought up the very limited, and very expensive Norrell Trigger Packs available for the purpose. Now, this much SHOULD have been sufficient. Your friendly TFL Staff is used to reading a certain amount of complaining about , "Well, THE LAW JUST SHOULDN'T BE THATAWAY!" Okay, fine - - I've written some of that type rhetoric myownself.
I was surprised, though, that some members just wouldn't let the topic drop. Some insisted on talking about how to do illegal conversions, and others wrote about flaunting the law in general - - To the effect that any kinda firearms law is unconstitutional. Again, I pretty much agree, at least in theory. But, friends and neighbors, this is NOT a perfect world, and wishing just won't make it so. Each of us, when we registered on The Firing Line, agreed to abide by the Forum Rules.

So, bottom line: a decent enough topic, with a number of fairly informative replies, had been removed. Please, be advised - - to maintain a degree of organization and order on TFL, there must be rules, and the rules must be applied. When needful, Steps Will Be Taken.
Best regards to all
