On May 9, 2023, in northwest Las Vegas, 14-year-old Caison Robinson was outside his home and he was shot by a drive-by shooter. The gun that was used by the shooter had a switch button making it a machine gun. Caison was hit many times. One bullet struck his colon, part of which had to be removed, another bullet pierced his liver, a third hit a vein in his abdomen and other bullets broke his femur and caused nerve damage to his arm. The “button” on the Glock made a single shot weapon a war weapon.  

The Glock Switch is a small button made on a 3d printer. This added quarter size button allows the Glock to fire 20 bullets per second. This makes the gun difficult to control and puts more bystanders at risk of being hit with a bullet.

This is a new added layer of danger that is part of living in a city where shootings are a common occurrence.
