Awesome line

But I do understand the idea of automatic weapon. It's cool, but I don't need one because I am not military trained to fire one and would just waste ammo, but I would like the option to get one more easily than jumping through a thousand hoops and a mountain of paper work and get harassed by the ATF every month

The way I see it if you have fun then it isn't ammo wasted.

Theres a myth and a half. So many people claim having anything class 3 means the atf swings by doing random inspections, that you give up privacy rights, etc. In reality all you deal with is the paperwork and the wait. My state allows class 3s and guys at my range do subgun shoots on the idpa ranges. Never been given a problem, the myth is probablly made by brady bunchers trying to keep you from having one. Id like a .22 with a supressor some day for plinking at places where you can shoot but noise causes complaints. A full auto .22 would be the ultimate plinker.

Of coures the ATF doesn't give 2 goddamns about the law or your rights, so they could do a random inspection if they feel like it.

They have already been harassing gun owners around the border

I got to shoot a full-auto .22 once. It was a Ruger 10/22 converted with some special pre-ban open bolt mod. Fired at about 1100rpm, and it was awesome to shoot with 50 round pre-ban mags. Even though each run through was an entire box of rounds, and the barrel would get pretty hot.

It hadn't been cleaned well enough so it jammed, which took some of the enjoyment out of rocking and rolling with it. Gun had no kick but the muzzle climb was tough to handle. I was like 13 at the time, so maybe now I'd be able to control it, but at the time it just jumped right up. Don't know what became of that gun, but I'd love to see it again.
