yep, pick up a shotgun news and you could buy mailorder an entire mac-10 kit
(everything but the actual frame)

interesting note; was speaking to a guy from England, there, the barrel and
other "bearing" surfaces such as the bolt are the major components, that must
be destroyed/modified to not work. Here it is the frame/reciever.
Seems people would buy the (perfectly legal) kits from here and the (also
perfectly legal) deactivated kits from there, then (completly illegally)
combine them.
