The full auto parts are legal to own but not use. Any receiver you get will not have the 3rd axis hole for the auto sear and if you do get one illegally you go up the river. You get those parts but have to replace the FCG anyway with US made parts to be 922 compliant. To me that $195 price is a little high.

Full auto parts are widely available. After all, every military issue AK-47 is fully-auto. As for the parts kit, it works. You'll have to buy another receiver and detach everything from the chopped up receiver that's there now. After that you'll have to install everything in the receiver you buy. Can be done pretty easily if you have the tools and know how. As said above, you'll need to buy a compliance set so it will be legal and unless a minimum of 10years + a hefty fine is attractive, you not gonna want that fully auto. I personally don't see why a person would want it myself. I perfer semi-auto.

^I have never seen why people do that. You can't hit didly squat bump firing. At least shooting a real full auto you can hit the broad side of a barn. That being said, I would rather hit the window in that barn shooting semi-auto than just the broadside using full auto or just miss the entire thing bump firing.

Why do we run instead of walk, why do we go a 100 mile a hour instead of 25, why do we like 50 guns and not just one, and it all comes down to just because. Im sure you do some things that others think are "wrong or crazy" but you like doing it in spite of what others think because YOU like it. Its all in fun.

You can get a Class III License, but they are spendy.

To get a full-auto gun without being a Class III dealer with an FFL, you have to first check that your state laws allow it (mine don't) and then find one you like at any dealer that has them or online that run anywhere from $3,000-30,000, then go through the BATFE process of getting a $200 tax stamp for the firearm and have it transferred to you through a Class III FFL dealer.

You may see full-auto firearms for much, much less, than that, but that's because they were made after 1986 and can only be transferred to Law Enforcement, Military or Class III dealers. Machine guns made after 1986 can not be legally transferred to individuals (this includes making one from scratch).

In other words, if you get an AK receiver, an AK parts set, and make it full-auto, you've just made a firearm that was put together after 1986 and you are in violation of federal law. DON'T DO IT!

AZ does allow full auto (with the $200 dollar tax stamp). Had one but learned everyone wanted to shoot it and nobody wanted to by ammo. I'll stick with semi-auto from now on.
