ATF isn't trying too hard anymore...

[Member 34319]

I can remember seeing a real nice co2 glock trainer at a shop I haunted a decade or so back. Simulated kickback and everything.
Just couldn't afford it at the time

I was hoping to see if there were any new funny reviews, but it looks like amazingly enough, Amazon finally took down the listing.

I figured they would. When I was laughing at it last night I figured there had to be some computer allowing the comments. That before long some human would see what was going on and pull it.

Amazon.com caught selling illegal FULL AUTO gun parts in ATF sting to convict its own customers with felony crimes

Do they think Amazon was in on it? Seems risky for a company to engage itself in some weird sort of entrapment. They would have to actually send out real full auto parts to people to have the ATF bust them. How many did they have?

I would have guessed scam (take money, dont send anything - a common marketplace scam on amazon) way before conspiracy Amazon/ATF joint sting to bust a few kids thinking they were actually buying airsoft parts.

In all honesty, looking things up.....one could fabricate that item with relative simplicity.

I have never heard of the site that had this "news story" and don't feel like spending any time checking. To me it's either humor or a tin foil hat site.

Just like a lightning link for full auto AR15. One could probably make one with a ruler, drill and hacksaw (that is, if he wanted his dog shot)

If you go onto e-bay you can find this same item listed, they are even less $$

Well ATF is known to work with Merchants to do illegal acts. Fast and Furious showed that

Any big companies like this? I know the ATF would do this crap but I think it would be difficult for the big companies to justify something like this. Probably would not look good for them to sell an illegal firearm part that get's lost and then ends up in a school shooting.

No argument that no company should do this in good Conscience, but ATF is still the big dog in the room with Amazon even if the ATF is no where near professional

I've got a KWA G17 airsoft. Uses green gas. Great for evening garage drills. Feels quite real and the slide cycles too. I set up a box and some paper and use it for my "dry fire" exercises as well as drawing from my holster and firing quickly.

Never had one of those but if the kids were still kids, I often thought one might be worth buying for teaching them to shoot. When they were young I taught them at home with airguns of course. Those green gas ones look like they would be fun and from what I hear are well made.
