.25in is 6.35mm Image

That aside, it's a good thing only the far right watch FOX News for anything other than comedy. And since it's not from Reuters or AP it won't get as much circulation to those that would actually rally with this--the far left.

for a right wing news site I was shocked they had a anti gun story at all. Had a friend forward it to me so I felt like it needed to be posted.

it would seem like the reasoning is that you can slightly modify a lower and simply put on a real upper half and the thing would work, from my limited experince I would not think this is possible.

I would pay money to see this Leo Gonnuscio guy fire this airsoft gun that he says he converted to a real AR-15. He has to actually hold it in his own hands, and actually put a few rounds through it without it malfunctioning or blowing up. We should somehow contact him and ask him to prove it, because otherwise, it is just talk.

Where is the Mythbusters show on this topic when we need it?

The problem is... What if it works? I'm sure the ATF would just love a national TV show to say "yes you can convert this airsoft gun to fire real ammo!" Its a rather touchy subject to get into, should they choose to. No one really wants to do it, for fear of the big bad government coming down and dropping you in a federal "rape me in the a$$" prison for the next 200 years.

Have you ever heard of exculpatory evidence? Its that one little thing that pulls down your entire case, so you don't want people to know about it.

That being said, I think they're not telling the whole story. So far only one guy has said you can do it, and he makes it sound like you just need a drill and boom, machine gun.

So, I say, send it to Mythbusters. Let them know that they need to test MULTIPLE styles of guns (Plastic, lower end AEG metal bodies, high end AEG metal bodies, and a WE GBB M4) and fully document the process.
