It's possible to convert the AR 15 to auto mode Depends on whether your rifle has a sear block and was milled for the full auto trigger pack. You need to have the right bolt carrier group and most importantly a full auto trigger pack and sear. Those parts are not too hard to obtain, but not sold (trigger pack) in any gun shop I've ever visited. Not to mention it's a felony with 20 years and 20K fine if you get caught doing the conversion. But then if you're planning terrorist acts - it's a rather minor issue. There's a book available online that shows how to convert a Ruger 10/22 .22lr into full auto as well if you have a milling machine and some skills as a machinist. Many handguns and rifles can be converted, especially ones that started out as full auto for the military and then were sold to the public in semi-auto only. Back in the real world - almost no one ever does this. The number of convictions per year is very low. 2acheck.com Books on converting several makes and models.
