The answer would be no! Only:
Class 3 with a police demo letter Class 2 Manufacturer There may be one or two other licenses, but that's the ones I sure of. If it were that easy, everyone would be doing it! Sorry!

Cool, thanks for the posts. Now, after reading the quoted topic, I'm still confused. If I had a demo letter, could I build a machine gun for demo purposes? Honestly, I tried going the ffl/sot demo letter route to start a legit business until I discovered the hassle involved. It would be nice if the process was much easier. It's too bad that the ATF started rejecting FFL holder's years ago. I believe it's a microcosmic version of the socialist agenda behind said bureau's.

If you just want a few machineguns, it will be cheaper to just buy transferables than to set up a business just to get some cheap machineguns.
Dealers deal, never build, manufacturers build and deal. ATF does not reject new dealers, if your local zoning has laws against gun shops and manuf. business in your area that is not ATF's fault. |

I've heard several sources talk about the"cracking down" of ffl's. Didn't the ATF reduce the number of ffl's by about half years ago? I remember that someone was complaining about fun show dealers, and why there were too many ffl's.

During one of my compliance inspection in the 90's (I'm a FFL/SOT) the examiner said in a smart voice, "There are too many FFL's out there and we are going to get most of them back!" (paraphase) all the time he is writing down the names of everyone who had bought a AR-15, SKS or AK-47. Look like he was compiling a list of assault weapons owners! I asked him if he was supposed to be doing that and I shit you not, he told me, "we are the ATF, we can do anything we want!" Guy was a real jerk!

The Clinton Administration is long gone, and all the crap that went with it is gone too.

No, Class 3s cannot manufacture machine guns. They may buy and sell, but manufacturing is for Class 2s. |
