Yeah pretty much. If you go on Gun Broker in their Class III section you'll usually see them listed as post 86 (Class III dealers only) and pre 86 transferable to civilians on a form 4. Maybe form 3 too, but I haven't looked at enough. I think are different types of Class III dealers, but most are only allowed one model of whatever Class III (1 AK, 1 M16, 1 MP5 etc). There may be some civilians who have Class III licenses just to have post 86 stuff since they are cheaper. Movie weapons houses must a different type of license still they'll have more than 1 post 86 weapon.
I don't own any Class III weapons. I've only researched it a little. But if I was to get one it would be a Ruger AC-556. There is usually 2 transferable ones on Gun Broker at any given time. They only cost 5k to 6k compared to 15k to 20k for M16's.
