[QUOTE="EvergreenSVT, post: 11376710, member: 22445"] I don't know about Texas law but as far as the United States is concerned it isn't a handgun, it is a machinegun. Your inability to function test it and determine that doesn't make it a handgun, though it would make arresting him for carrying a handgun plausible because you've not been trained to identify the difference and therefore likely aren't expected to know. For reference, unload the weapon and place the selector (where is it on that Glock btw?) in the auto position. Press the trigger and cycle the slide. If the striker snaps forward every time when it goes back into battery so long as the trigger is depressed, it is a functioning automatic weapon (or a malfunctioning semi-automatic weapon). This applies also to rifles. As for short barreled weapons, they are only SBR/SBS as far as the federal government is concerned when they are in that configuration. If you remove the stock from a registered SBR Glock or put a 16" upper back on an AR, it is a Title 1 firearm again and can be carried interstate or sold as a Title 1 firearm. ATF of course asks that you send them a letter and have it stricken from the Registry. The good news is you can keep two uppers and travel without the little one if you don't want to do a form 20.
