      Generally, a Glock "Switch" is part/assembly enabling a Glock to fire in a fully automatic mode. It's my understanding "switch" would be illegal to possess anywhere in the USA (which includes California), without approval by the ATF.

        That's true; the ATF has ruled that a "Glock switch" is a machine gun under the NFA.

            Fewer people are killed with all rifles each year (323 in 2011) than with shotguns (356), hammers and clubs (496), and hands and feet (728).

                There's more than one version, there are Glock factory made ones, then there are Chinese made ones. The Glock factory made ones are heavily NFA controlled and spendy, the Chinese ones are sold on the street from $250-$600 and are made to various integrity, some work, some don't, SO I'M TOLD for I have no first hand experience with these devices, legal ones or otherwise.

                    Seems to be a delicious new toy for third world gang members to turn each other heads into soup bowls ..don’t see any reason for one in the states.it turns a utility type pistol that some can barely afford ito a bullet hose .Just a big waste of expensive ammo .Plus you might get a nice set of S&W chrome hand cuffs before your ride to county to start a unwanted vacation from everything you care for.

                      if you have assets, its $250K + 10 years in prison...


                      If you are a gang member, who is illegal and has been deported... most get less than 36 months... non violent so eligible for early release....

                          You?re only allowed to use them if you?re a gang banger and making videos online for everyone to see. The ATF won?t bother you then because Biden has instructed the ATF to protect the democrat?s voter base.

                            Probably what’s installed on a Glock 9mm that I heard being tested at a park near my house at 11PM. It sounded like, Braaaap-Braaaap-Braaaap-Braaap. I’ve shot M-11s legally in AZ, it wasn’t as fast as the M-11, but dang close.

                              Looks and sounds fierce, is actually grossly impractical. Certainly not worth a dozen years in a federal prison.
