They don’t really intend ISIS members to read it: they are aiming at English-speaking customers in the US who are likely to buy the guns. (And those customers would not be able to read Arabic.) ---

I guarantee it’s not for automatic, so is this like painting a racing stripe on a Ford Fiesta? Do those guns have safeties? cause i assumed “peace” was “safety on”. ---

> [@DigitalC](#): > > Do those guns have safeties? cause i assumed “peace” was “safety on”. Yes, I assume that too. But then if “war” is fire, what is “God wills it,” [the same but in Latin](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deus_vult)? ---

Agreed. It’s a gimmick that will do exactly what it’s intended to do – sell guns and offend people. ---

> [@DigitalC](#): > > Do those guns have safeties? cause i assumed “peace” was “safety on”. WTF? Didn’t any of you look at the cite in the OP? “Peace” was safety on “War” was safety off , semi-auto “God wills it” safety off, full auto. Which means it’s no good for the civilian market in the USA as one cannot register a post-1986 machine gun here. ---

> [@running\_coach](#): > > But it’s being sold. I call bullshit on it being true full auto. No dealer would last 3 seconds selling post-1986 machine guns to civilians. And especially @ that price. (Try buying a pre-'86 for under 20K) No way that thing is true full auto. It’s either using a Hellfire or Tac-Con 3MR trigger system (neither which is true full auto) or that selector switch is the lock for a bump fire stock. If that was a true, full auto selector switch the ATF would be on it like stink on shit.
