I just ran into this project after following a link to a different one that was listed by Make Magazine (makezine.com); it's someone's application of a door-lock mechanism from a car to the trigger of a BB gun. Not pretty, but pretty clever.

(Incidentally, any reason to think that such a mechanism would be inherently / per se / do-not-pass-go *illegal* under U.S. law on a conventional semiautomatic firearm, so long as the mechanism remained truly semiautomatic?)
I notice he also refers to such a trigger mechanism as belonging to a "century gun," a term I've never heard before -- can anyone enlighten? Googling "century gun" mostly ends up with lists of "14th century gun," "15th century gun," etc
