This is a legality question...
I was thinking about buying an M4 kit, then seeking ATF approval to convert it to full auto. After thinking about it off an on for a while yesterday, I thought I remembered seeing something either here or on AR15.com that stated it was illegal to build a full auto, and you have to buy one that came from the factory as full auto. However, a quick search here and on AR15 turned up absolutly nothing. So the question, in its most simple form: Pending approval from ATF (and paying the tax), is building a full auto AR legal?
