As I understand it, under current law, anybody who can pass the background checks and pay the associated costs can own a fully automatic firearm unless that ownership is proscribed by local law. Where I live, there are no restrictions, so no hurdle that I can't pass.


Ahh, the old "I dont like those guns, so I dont care what happens to them" argument. Like I said earlier, gun owners like you have done more damage to our rights than any gun control organization.

Just to clarify, you feel that a tax, background check, and the permission of a local law enforcement head is not an infringement on the rights enumerated in the Second Amendment? How do you feel about high capacity magazines, concealed carry permits, or waiting periods?
