Trump administration to allow sales of device that turns rifles into machine guns

The Trump administration has moved to allow the sale of devices that turn semiautomatic rifles like the AR-15 into fully automatic machine guns. 

The Justice Department announced that it had reached a settlement, abandoning a legal fight to ban the device — called forced reset trigger — first brought by the Biden administration. 

Gun control groups condemned the move, saying the Trump administration has effectively legalized machine guns.
