I understand that the dealer samples were foreign made MGs that were imported after 68 and before 86. My question is what all is out there and how did they get here? For example, I have seen numerous MP40s Thompsons, stens, etc but never an MP44, Are they out there? And I noticed on Gunbroker there is a pre 86 dealer sample CHINESE manufactured type 56, how did that get here? Maybe a Vietnam bring back that was registered after the amnesty???
Are there any M16s?
Whats the estimated number of DS out there?
To my limited knowledge, a C&R MP40 and pre 86 DS MP40 are the same thing minus their registration status (IE they still have the original german tube and not a domestically made tube?)
Whats out there as far as beltfeds go? The only ones i have seen are: MG42, MG34, and M249s
Is it legal to purchase a DS Mp5 and convert it to a MP5SD?
Also, when/if i give up my SOT do they transfer to me tax paid on a Form 4? As a follow up question to that, are they transferable to my heirs???
Ive also seen pre86 DS suppressors and Grenade Launchers, I thought these werent able to be registered/restricted for public sale?
Im considering getting my FFL after the first of the year, so im trying to get pre educated on the Dealer samples.
Thanks for all of your help guys!
