Devices to make semiautomatic handguns automatic have been illegal according to federal courts for several years. Now they are illegal in Alabama.

The Alabama Legislature passed legislation introduced by state Sen. Will Barfoot making Glock switches, which are a device that can be attached to the end of a Glock handgun to convert it into an selective fire machine pistol, which is capable of a fully automatic fire.
