There are also limits to the types of firearms that can be owned by individuals without special licenses. Semi-automatic handguns and rifles are legal to own, but fully automatic weapons are only legal for police, the military, and persons with special licenses. In addition there are limits to the type of ammunition that can be owned by private individuals. Learn more about federal gun laws as well as laws that vary by state from this infographic! |

" ... fully automatic weapons are only legal for police, the military, and persons with special licenses...."
Not perzactly. IF you live in a state which permits the ownership of full-auto, the weapon must be on tha National Firearms Registry, MUST be made before 1986 and one MUST have the tax stamp for it, having paid the $200.00 tax. It's NOT a "special permit"...it's a TAX. And yes it is unconstitutional but it IS the "LAW." |

| Since police arrive after the fact with full auto, we the people , the first responders to violent crime, should be disadvantaged and not allowed full auto. Liberal logic/oxymoron. |

TO REMEMBER |
| I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
