    You forgot to also add that regular people cannot do all that because they also need to be a FFL as well as have in writing documenting why they necessitate a full auto firearm manufactured after 1986 for the ATF to approve or deny.

      No, I didn’t, because, no they don’t.

      If they’re manufacturing automatic weapons or wish to purchase an automatic weapons manufactured after 1986 to law enforcement, THEN you need a class 3 FFL license. If they’re manufacturing, then they also need to file a form 1.

      Private individuals can purchase a machine gun without an FFL, assuming your state law allows it via form 4. An FFL makes the process easier, but it’s not a requirement
