The ATF invited CBS News Philadelphia to the range this week for a close-up demonstration of the destructive power of a machine gun conversion device or "switch." The results were shocking to witness. According to ATF Special Agent Neil Zubaty, adding the device to a gun can allow it to fire 1,200 bullets in a minute, if one were able to reload that fast. He tells us that’s a higher firing rate than a military M-16. The recoil from the rapid-firing weapon is also tremendous. Zubaty has been a firearms instructor with the ATF for more than 15 years. Even for him, he says controlling a weapon with a switch can be challenging. And when these fall into the hands of someone less experienced, it can lead to devastating collateral damage. realdansnyder #switch #glockswitch #pistolswitch #semiautomatic #fullyautomatic #philadelphia #philly #gunrange #philadelphiapolice #ATF
