Not if you extend the barrel to the legal 10" length. You think you're dealing with an idiot here?
It's really not that easy, depending on where you live and who's in charge of where you live it might very well be an impossibility.box wrote:Questions Questions
I was told by some friends of mine that getting a class III license isn't all that difficult. Something about some inquisitive BATF bullshit, and a whopping five hundred dollars annual renewal, though if I had the $$ for an automatic weapon a piddling 500 bucks would, well, be piddling.
Is that really the case? And if I were thinking about getting an FFL, would an FFL make acquiring a machine gun license any easier?
Cheapest automatic weapon? I saw an old uzi, beat to shit, for four big ones. I see one online right now for three. Anything less?
Also, if you have this license, can you convert a semi you already own, provided of course you pay and fill out the appropriate 27.Z/6
No, you cannot convert a semi-automatic weapon to fully-automatic. No machines guns have been produced for the civilian market here in the United States since 1986. Any machine guns on the market today are at least 20 years old, and if they break that's it. You can't replace the fun switch in them if it breaks. You could only replace it with semi-auto parts, but you would still have to keep it as a machine gun because the BATFE has some bullshit rule "once a machine gun always a machine gun." Mind you that's not actually a Federal law or anything, but they'll still prosecute you for it.

That's cheaper than buying new ammo because .303 isn't all that popular and surplus ammo isn't as plentiful as 7.62x54R. So as long as this stuff stays this cheap it's simply not worth it for me to reload, especially since I don't plan on shooting this gun all the time. Working the bolt is a fucking bitch. Cycling through a full magazine and it's nap time.
Why not buy a Mosin-Nagant? At these prices you might as well pick one up. They're cool guns with a lot of history behind them. Also, I'd like to have a collection of combat rifles from each of the major combatants in World War 2. I've got this one any my Lee-Enfield, next I might pick up a Mauser, although I'd like another handgun first.
