Ill just take the pic with none of the internals in it, and no springs either. Put the switch all the way over, take the pic, and the crop out that it dont have any upper or firing mech in it!

I bet there has never been an arrest because a selector points at "outbreak" either.
I doubt there has been either. But i don't think having to deal with johnny q law longer just to look cool is worth it. That is a personal choice the OP has to make though.
It might not be illegal but it is probably not smart either.
Just my opinion.
I dont think anyone said outlaw anything. I am pretty sure the majority of this thread is just people advising that putting parts in it to make it look like it does something it does not is a bad idea. Washifornia is different, your NFA laws leave a lot to desire. however in Oregon we can have those parts and install them. The main point is, if you make the gun look like it has the ability to fire full auto even though it cannot. there is a higher likely hood of having to deal with law enforcement.
One problem the OP may run into with modifying a part to rotate to the auto position is if the officer says "did you modify the gun at all". I have been asked this when my gun malfunctioned. Luckly for me I could honestly say No I have not. Where in this case you would have to answer, Yes i modified my gun. And that is where you may get into constructive intent. Will the charges stick? most likely not. but is it worth going to jail, having your gun seized, having to hire a lawyer. For me the answer is no. Not just to look cool. For others the answer may be yes. I would like to spend thousands on legal fees to look cool to my friends.
How many cases are there of people dealing with the cops on this matter?
As i am sure you know, i don't have an answer for that as i am not a lawyer. I definitely don't study case law. But i also know there are a lot of officers who know very little about firearms laws. There are plenty of arrests with no charges filed. Personally i don't like handcuffs unless they are on my wife. Will it happen probably not, but it can.
I'm asking.............has a police officer EVER checked out someone's selector?
I like handcuffs on your wife also.

You keep saying "It''s not worth going to jail" "It's not worth having to hire a lawyer"
Has anyone EVER had to go to court, jail, or hire a lawyer for this?
On the other side of the coin. An AR15 looks exactly like an M16. Do people get hassled because their AR LOOKS like an M16?
I am building a custom Mega Machine lower and have a question. The lower is marked for full auto. Full auto is legal to own in Washington State but not to shot. My question is can I use a FA selector swith in my SA gun legally? And whould it work? I want the apperance of FA with out the hassle. Thank you in advance.

Yes. I had an HK53 clone. I told the officer shooting it to put it in the Full Auto position. He looked at me with a frown, I said "trust me, but just hold on real tight".
He did. And flinched hard. I laughed. He called me an ***.
