About 4-5 yrs ago, iirc, I did a select fire Saiga 12 for an ffl with sot. I made a demo video for him once it was up and running, about 5 minutes.
YouTube, Gunfixr Select Fire Saiga Enjoy. |

Sadly, unlike pot (right or wrong) there is no local "grassroots" push to de-restrict machineguns. There is some for "silencers" and even some for SBRs and shotguns, but not machine guns. That's just too much for the generations of conditioned thought in the USA today.

Koda, the gun itself is not a lefty, but it does have a left hand side charging handle, iirc.

That gun was a lot of fun. Had it about 2-3 months before sending it to the customer, waiting on the form 3 (dealer to dealer).
Was shooting it pretty regular. Even at the cheap $5 a box stuff, it was adding up, so while we hated to see it go, my wallet sure didn't mind it going. Even took it to a 3 gun shoot. |

"The Federal Marihuana Tax was ruled unconstitutional in 1969......you could not pay it if you wanted to."
Odd, since it's plain that's exactly how the Registry works, isn't it? Or is the fact they "accept" your payment prior to disapproving the form & refunding you the 'legal' difference that covers them? In any case, there's an awful lot of people pleading with the Bureau to take their money for taxes that go unsatisfied... TCB

In the first, the tax was ruled unconstitutional, the closing of the registry was legislation that prohibited new firearms from being added. It has not been ruled unconstitutional.

President Reagan signed the 1986 Act right? Can't figure that out

Senator Hughes introduced his amendment at the last minute. He also poured on tons of rhetoric about saving school children from the scourge of drug dealers with machine guns and whatnot. He was able to get enough votes to keep it attached. Supporters of the bill didn't want to wait until the next legislative session, in which the balance of congress might have changed. The idea was that the amendment would have been overturned later. Unfortunately, that didn't happen.

The time to overturn Hughes has long passed. In a few more generations, machine guns will become antiques. With enough passage of time, there will be no more civilian machine guns, even if it takes a few hundred of years.
At least we're lucky that we don't have the situation in Canada. The situation in Canada is that only current machine gun owners can buy machine guns, and the machine guns must come from current owners. Thus, the situation in Canada is that there are: 1. no new machine guns; and 2. there are no new machine gun owners. In Cananda, they have a Highlander situation, where one day, the last surviving machine gun owner will own all the machine guns in Canada. After the Canadian Highlander gets all the Canadian machine guns, he will live forever and rule the Canadian Earth. The end.

I agree. The machine gun ban should go away. I just can't see it happening without a major shift in this country. Heck, most republican gun owners are OK with gun bans of some sort of another

The more I think about the machine gun ban, the more I get upset. I mean, if I showed you my 30 year old pistol, most young kids would think, "that thing is ugly". Show them a brand new H&K pistol, and it's the coolest thing ever.
But everyone who sees a legal machine gun thinks it's so cool. It's another ugly 30 year old gun! And the more I look at an MP7, the madder I get. My apologies to the older shooters. lol.

01FFL's....."Dealer"....gets a Class 3 SOT......it allows them to ONLY deal in NFA firearms. 07FFL's...."Manufacturer"......gets a Class 2 SOT....it allows dealing and manufacturing of NFA firearms. An 01FFL cannot get a Class 2 SOT.

Having a Class 2 SOT requires a manufacturing FFL, such as an 07 that allows you to be both a manufacturer and dealer. Both dealers I've worked at had an 07 FFL and a Class 2 SOT. Are you specifically referring to my use of the word "dealer"? I was using that word in a general sense, I wasn't specifically referring to 01 FFLs. But even then, you can be both a manufacturer and a dealer at the same time. Lots of dealers have manufacturing FFLs even though they don't do much in the way of manufacturing. It's not incorrect to refer to those types of dealers as "dealers". The store I work at deals in guns and NFA items, so many people would call us a dealer. We also have a Class 2 SOT. So tell me again how anything I wrote in post #43 is incorrect?

That implies that a "Dealer" has the option of a Class 2 SOT or a Class 3 SOT.......they don't. It is quite common on this forum and others for neophyte and aspiring dealers to want to now what they can and cannot do as a Federal Firearms Licensee. Imprecise language muddies the water. Your post did that.

I used the term "dealer" as most people here use it; it's the place we go to buy guns. And a dealer can -- and often does -- have a manufacturing FFL. My post was simplistic, and that was intentional. If you feel the need to elaborate when someone posts about stuff like this, then feel free. But don't come on here and "correct" someone who hasn't posted any incorrect information.

Consider the nature of this subforum, and of this particular thread. There's every possibility that posts here could be taken by a third party as valid advice or guidance. As such, it does fall to us to be somewhat exacting and absolutely correct.
