Fully auto weapons banned

Not banned, but regulated. And depending on where you live, you may enjoy more freedom from regulation than in another place.

Machine guns are fun for the whole family. I'd rather see Americans out at the range enjoying their freedoms this way than watching the news and seeing BLM protestors throwing rocks and Molotov cocktails at cops. (the filtered word is c-o-c-k tails, not sure why it is being filtered?)

you keep thinking your belief or anyone else's belief has any bearing on the actual ****ing law I gave you, lol. It does not. You remain refuted.

I made this thread as an opportunity for people to support you.


But they know you are lying.


And I enjoy that. Lol

I believe you mean before 1986, not after. I believe those weapons pre-date the assault weapons ban, so they are easier to purchase legally, but they are dwindling with time, and their collectible nature makes it unlikely many are actually sold, and guarantees they are extremely expensive.

MUCH easier and cheaper to modify a new weapon for automatic fire but that's illegal, mostly.

Yeah I was reading about the filters on the bugs page. Apparently shit is okay now but **** gets filtered.

no. we already established in the other threat that that is a moronic comparison. Nuclear weapons are not "arms" as defined in the constitution and supreme court.

I missed the "other thread" but how is it justified the Supreme Court decides definitions? I thought the dictionary did that? The founders wrote the constitution based on definitions at the time, not what the words could or are defined centuries later. Arms are defined as weapons. Does that mean the Supreme Court can define speech as only speech that supports the federal government? Would that be acceptable?

Firearm Owners’ Protection Act

In 1986, this Act amended the NFA definition of “silencer” by adding combinations of parts for silencers and any part intended for use in the assembly or fabrication of a silencer. The Act also amended the GCA to prohibit the transfer or possession of machine guns. Exceptions were made for transfers of machine guns to, or possession of machine guns by, government agencies, and those lawfully possessed before the effective date of the prohibition, May 19, 1986.

Machine Guns & Automatic Firearms in Indiana

I believe what it says is Indiana rescinded a law saying an 18 year old could have an assault rifle but not a machine gun. Money and connections + FFL talks bullshit walks.

Depends on who you are. Machine guns manufactured after 1986 can be sold only to law enforcement and government agencies, exported, or held as inventory or "dealer samples" by licensed manufacturers and dealers.

That isn't what I said. They are conditionally regulated differently post 1986 than before. But it really is a moot point anyway. Even prior to 1986 there were so few machine guns being transferred or sold, not many really cared. Not even the NRA in fact.

So when someone says "effectively banned" that can have several meanings. AR-15s are in their native configurations are "effectively banned" in states like Commiefornia. Doesn't mean they aren't out there.

If I told you this law would be applied to a certain type of gun


Only certain types of FFL/SOTs may make them, and then only for purchase by qualified state and federal agencies. There are no exceptions

Every gun person I know would say that gun is effectively banned


In fact if you support that law they call you a gun banner

If it is my neighbors don't know about it or are not complying. I have a neighbor on both sides of me that fire full auto all the time. And yes I know a little bit about guns being a weapons specialist in the military.
