Caution shows effectiveness of automatic and semi automatic rifle fire on humans.

Wow that is really violent. Kind of surprised this wasn't national news. It's not like Puerto Rico is Chicago or anything.

This was an obvious gangland hit, and there likely will be reprisal killings. Everyone who abuses drugs enables this stuff.

One or two of the handguns appeared to be firing on automatic.
The down comments to the video mentioned "switches" and I assume they are talking about those
illegal devices made in China. Hopefully those do not make it into the USA.
Chicago and Houston are dangerous enough.

They convert Glocks to Auto and are available mail order from China. You can even 3D print them. They are here.

I have no problem with criminal gang members killing each other off. It is the innocent bystanders getting killed in the crossfire that pisses me off. At least in that one all the right guys got killed. Scum, every one of them. The innocent kids getting killed in Chicago by gang shootings is nothing but horrible.

I believe a Houston police officer has been killed or wounded by an automatic Glock. Let me find the officers video.

It was on the mean streets of Houston thread.

I think they were probably dead after they sprayed them with full auto.

I think someone even posted a link to a site selling them on the Houston thread about this. Didn't someone in here say they were technically legal?

Probably the equivalent of the "Drop In" Auto Sears for AR15 pattern rifles in the 1980's. After '82 ATF got around to banning them if they weren't registered w/ NFA. If you were to buy one of these and own a Glock, you'd be taking a risk of being busted for constructive possession. Then again I have a lot of rubber bands and pants with belt loops in violation of the bump stock ban...

BTW Puerto Rico has strict gun laws and is a island.
