In reply to the discussion: Trump Allows Sale of Device to Transform Firearms [View all]Incorrect...I didn't read your link, but I already know how it works...it's not that simple at all.
In order to buy a new manufacture or post 86 machinegun or dealer sample, you have to have a Class 3 FFL which is not the standard pawn shop FFL. Also, the post 86 firearm you buy is ONLY transferable to other Class 3 FFL's or as a "dealer sample" for law enforcement agencies....It is NOT transferable to an individual.
The only way an individual can buy a TRANSFERABLE machinegun is to buy it through a Federal C&R FFL, where it has to meet this criteria...."Over 50 years old and/or historically significant"...Even then, the gun has to already be on the registry and/or 1968 amnesty...The cost for C&R machineguns starts at around $25,000 per gun....You are not really paying for the gun as much as you are the privilege to own the gun through the registry.
