pcb911, sounds like me. I had a lot of machine guns before 1968 and registered most of them during the amnesty, sold off a lot of others that I should have registered and kept. I ended up with two .50 M2HB, two .30 ANM2, 1919A4, a Winchester M14, Colt XM16A1, Sten, 1921/28 Navy Thompson, M1 Thompson, M1A1 Thompson, M2 carbine, British Bren and Lewis, Russian Degtyarev, MAC10 and 11, and a few others.

I sold most of these in the late 70's and early 80's but kept a few which I still shoot. Should have kept them all since they cost me practically nothing when I acquired them. Hey, who wanted a .50 M2HB in 1964? Nobody was interested in them and they sold for about $200 each back then. I think I paid somewhere around $300 for the Navy Thompson and under $100 for the Sten. Who knew?
