10. It's a 3D printable part

They only passed this because it’s just for optics and won’t affect 99.999% of the gunners in that state, if someone is using one to do a drive by shooting an extra state felony won’t matter to them. The white rethuglicans there are probably excited it’s another law the cops can figure out a way to use against black residents there in Alabama.

Like the article says, this part is illegal under federal law already, anything that makes a semiautomatic firearm fully automatic is considered a machine gun under federal law, has been since the 1930s and the registry closed for private ownership of new ones in the 1980s.
