    No


    I went to a privately owned school known as Gunsite (gunsite.com) and not even they are allowed to just "buy" full auto's. They have special permitts to maintain them for instructional purposes to teach law enforcement and military. As part of them maintaining the automatic weapons, ATF has to come on a regular basis to inspect them.

    So people who posses privately owned automatic weapons did 1 of 2 things,
    1) coverted the weapon to full auto
    2) obtained the weapon illegally

    You are kidding right? You need a class 3 liscence to purchase/posses an automatic weapon. If you have the liscence it is perfectly legal.

    You may only own a machine gun that was manufactured and registered with the BATF before May 19, 1986. Weapons manufactured after that date are restricted for Military and Law Enforcement use only.


    So YES you are correct, however having a class 3 doesn't mean you can just go out and start picking up weapons left and right, as stated before and even someone else mentioned it, you gotta register and all that jazz so the local law enforcement can keep tabs on the weapons.

    You didn't know what weapon it was when you bought it yet you were able to disassemble it? Impressive

    Well I saw two pins in it and figured that was how ya took it apart. I had a little bit of trouble gettin it back together but now I have figured it out. I always like to know how to take them apart so I can clean them cause after every time I shoot I clean my guns.

    Reason for buyin it is cause I have always wanted an MP5 and noticed it looked like one. Didn't really think it was.

    true stuff

    and btw wtf are you doing randomly buying a pretty gun not knowing what it is?

    and what are you even using it for? bc u seemingly don't have the proper licenses and registrations to have it, if u jumped the gun (lol) and bought it like that.

    and don't tell me ur using it for hunting... unless you plan on hunting humans that is

    The bolded part is incorrect. You do not need a "license" to own an NFA weapon.
