We're lucky they arem't calling them Glock AKs.
I think they are deliberately avoiding the correct term "unregistered machine gun" because that would make a person ask "are there registered machine guns?"
Glock 18s are Glock 18s, no different from Beretta 93s or HK VP70Ms. If you are trained to shoot them they have a secondary feature that has "some" value. If you are a gangsta, just an easier way to "blaze yar glock." Won't make criminals who are willing to shoot people inherently more or less dangerous.
The real significance of this, for better or worse, is conversion technology for this weapon system is now in the wild. They will never put that genie back in the bottle, so every time they want to worry about binary triggers, hellstorms and other bump devices it will be a more absurd argument because 3D printing is getting common and the conversion doesn't require a 07 FFL who knows how to time a HK sear.
This SHOULD be the focus of ATF because weed dealers and gangstas with select fire Glocks ARE who they need to be chasing after. Those people shoot at people and I'd much rather have them focused on this than worrying about boog memes on the internet or trying to infiltrate whatever "patriot group" the SPLC has declared to be the next Hitler.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
