All NFA weapons are legal in Texas. You do need to research it, you don't need a license or a permit, you do need to be able to legally own a gun, you do need your local chief law enforcement officer to sign off, or start up an NFA trust (typically about $500.00 to do it right), you do need to submit the paperwork to the ATF and wait 6-8 months and you do need to pay a $200.00 tax stamp per item other than AOWs, which require only a $5.00 tax stamp to transfer. There also dealer to dealer transfers if your NFA dealer doesn't have what you want.

It isn't difficult or illegal, you just have to do all of the paperwork, get all of the proper sign-offs and pay Uncle Sam $200.00.
