Trumpled (Alternative Leading)

AR-15's are a very quick mag change and shoot 20 rounds in nine seconds, given the shooter had a modded up 100 round mag it would have been easy to shoot a lot of people at once.
My bro in law is in a gun club/collects them and he reckons the big thing with the military style weapons is they dont overheat like older semi autos so you dont have any cool down period which allows you to keep shooting and that a kid could learn to use a AR-15 as they are that easy. They should be banned.....

I don't know much about AR-15 but I do know modifications are available via legitimate and illegitimate means for many weapons. Can you turn one into fully-auto easily?

I have used a 9mm glock handgun extensively, which are a semi auto-matic hand gun. The following accessories are available for it
Shoulder stock and barrel extension (to turn it into a rifle.)
Silencer.
Scope.
100 shot mags (normal mag is 13)
and most sinister is a kit which turns it from a semi-auto pistol into a fully automatic submachine gun, like an Uzi. Complete with 100 shot mag, side bar, silencer, shoulder stock and to change from semi-auto to fully auto requires the simple insertion of a small metal tab that's about the size of a half a guitar pick into the back of the slide mechanism.
