I think what he meant was that the general public cannot just walk into a gun shop and easily purchase a full-auto weapon. That is without first obtaining a Class 3 license. Anyone that knows firearm laws knows this. Don’t be so hard on him. He does very good work here in alerting we FReepers of absurd quotes from idiot authors about weapons.

In your own words from your profile page, “Folks with abundant knowledge and confidence often seem arrogant to those without.” couldn’t stand more true on your attack of 2ndDivisionVet.

No harsh feelings, I hope. There has never been a period in our history that gun owners should be uniting together and not bashing someone for your misinterpretation of his helpful posting.

" That is without first obtaining a Class 3 license. Anyone that knows firearm laws knows this." Then by inference, you don't know much about firearm laws. A Class 3 license is NOT required to buy or sell a machine gun.

No harsh feelings here. I just attempt to educate the ignorant, self-appointed gun and ammunition "experts" on this forum. They do a great disservice by disseminating misinformation, rumors and other drivel. And you might notice that they are the first to brand others as idiots.

I will accept the expert's apology after he looks in the mirror. So far, he has not responded, either public or private.

I am a member of the general public and I own a full auto S&W model 76. No special license required. You buy from a class 3 dealer, pass a background check and pay a $200 tax, you get a very nice postage stamp like stamp on the original paper work.
