" 'Cause, you know... I'm just not impressed
at all if they don't."

Hahaha... Probably same as the full size stuff. Govt's a wee bit picky on fully auto stuff. Unless you register it as a display. If I'm not mistaken, there is a display exemption on certain permits.
wow these guys have issues !!!!
but mad props to them ...i wish i could do that

can't be done legally, unless you have a manufacturers license, and even then, it can't be transferred to us lowly peons since no machineguns manufactured and registered post 1986 can be transferred to civilians. :(
