“The collectors would really take it in the shorts, wouldn’t they? Thus their opposition to the repeal of the Hughs act. Follow the money.”

I see your argument. I do not believe it is valid. I have yet to see any machine gun collector that would not want a repeal of the Huges act. They cannot get the guns they want. Most machine gun collectors do it because they like machine guns, not because they expect to make money off of them.

I am sure there are a few such as you describe. I simply believe that they are very rare.
