A guy at the range had a FULL AUTO 15-22. Of course, he admitted that he "modified" it, at a cost of almost the gun itself! I was pretty cool. What do you think he did to it?

Unless he paid much more than the price of the gun in licensing and taxes, he is asking for legal woes.
 
He could have been using a Slide Fire stock, in which case it was a bump fire and not a true full auto.
 
As others have said, it's most likely a Slide Fire Stock. From what I've read here, they take a little modification to work on a M&P 15-22.

Looks like fun, but I'm not about to plunk down $370 + tax for one.

If it isn't a slide fire stock and he modified his 15-22 to full auto without jumping through the BATFE hoops & taxes, that full auto 15-22 is a one way ticket to club fed.
 
Maybe it was one of these? :D

Nope. I've seen that one before. It's the low end model, doesn't have the glade tacticandle attachment.

There are NO legal paths to civilian ownership of a post may '86 machinegun. Those are restricted to law enforcement and government use. A Class 3 dealer could have one as a dealer sample to show to law enforcement.

An individual who converted a 15-22 to full auto would be in violation of the National Firearms Act; Period. As he would not qualify for any of the few exemptions.
 
As he said, my friend has converted one but he is a Class 03/07 FFL. He can covert current models only as "Post Samples" that only C3 dealers can own or as demo guns for Govt/Police Departments. The if they wrote you a letter and get it approved from ATF, you can make Post Samples for that agency only... MG's that civilians can own have to be a on Form 3/4 and made before 1986 which was the cutoff date for civilian ownership.....

Otherwise, 10 years in Prison should keep most folks from trying something so stupid! Works for me, I just go and shoot my buddies with all his licenses and paperwork!

So, on a new rifle you can't get it converted to select fire and apply for a class 3 license or tax stamp deal?
In a word: NO.

As posted, only SOT Class 3 FFL's can possess post '86 fully automatic weapons and those with, (IIRC) Type 7 or 10, can manufacture them. In either case, you would have to have the proper license before the fact.

Get caught with one, without the proper papers/tax stamp(s), and it can be up to 10 years hard time in a federal prison.

Search: David R. Olofson for info on the bad do-do that can befall you.

Bottom line: If you want a sub-machine gun, machine gun, SBR, AOW, or anything under the NFA, do it the right way.
 
Slide fire is FULL RETARDED fun.....

All it is... makes me SMILE every time I chase my reactive Ball with 25rds of LEAD in 1 burst......

Nice to LOCK it into single fire as well..... for PLINKING and such

Not going to get TOO Many Cyotes or Squirls on FULL AUTO... but ZOMBIES dont stand a chance


LOL

please explain or post pics of the "rubber band" mod/bump fire that was mentioned in the post. legal full auto fire would be nice with a bag of .99 cent rubber bands instead of an almost $400 stock which i am not about to pay for. thanx ahead of time.
 
ATF classifies rubber bands as illegal machine gun parts.
