Title: Lightning Links?
Post by: WhiteWolfReloaded on June 24, 2013, 08:11:49 PM
Anyone know anything about them? I stumbled across some information earlier regarding drop in auto sears and lightning links came up. There seems to be no official vendor for these things and a lot of people seem very confused as to the legality of buying or manufacturing your own. For those who've not heard of them:

NFA registered item. Same thing as a machine gun. Not legal to make.

Amazing, you can attach a stupid bump fire stock and it's legal, but you can't put one of these in?  :facepalm: Means it actually must work.

They are easy to make, are illegal and they work!  :dancingBanana:

I have read that once you install the lightning link (Takes seconds) you will loose your semi-auto function. You will only have "safe" and full auto. Take out the LL (Takes seconds) and you will have your semi-auto function back.

I have read that 1/16" pop metal works well but a used 1/16" circular saw blade works best!

Last and most important....Just the possession of the two interlocking pieces of metal is a violation of either the '68 or '86 NFA (I forget). The LL does not have to be installed in the weapon.  C:-)

Last, IMO you do not want nor need a fully auto weapon. Semi-auto will do the job! If you need one pick it up from the Blue Helmeted thug you just sent to his/her glory.   ;)
