| There are some posters that post pics of lowers with the full auto part on there as well. I think you you have to be 21 and the other question is can you convert the weapon legally or are those web pages trying to get you put in jail i have heard many different answers on this q just dtrying to find out if there are any knowlegable people on this forum about class 3 stuff I am intrested in getting a full auto once 21 and doing it the right way but also the most least expensive way as well. |

You can legally own a full auto in most states. Under federal law you have to pay a $200 tax, pass a background check (more intensive than NICS) and get permission from your CLEO (county sheriff or some such), unless you form a corporation or a trust (then you don't need the background check or the CLEO signoff). You cannot convert a gun to full auto. You can only buy full auto weapons that were full auto prior to 1986. The going rate for a transferrable lower is between $8,000 and $10,000. A Colt M16 will run you about $15,000. You can get into a MAC10 for about $3,500. |
