Wal-Mart Sells Machine Guns!

69. nothing made after 1986

and available is not the word I would use since the registry was closed to non LE in 1986 which pushed the prices very high. A dealer in NFA items needs a different FFL, the background check takes about four months, and most people don't know they can and don't bother to even if they could. There are only about 50K of them registered to individuals. A legal Uzi in the US is about six or seven thousand dollars. An illegal one in London can be had for 200 pounds. The UK and Europe has more machine gun crimes than we do.

Several HKs like the one pictured were stolen from LAPD some months ago, and some Indiana cops sold on the black market (which they stole from the armory.)

Before 1977, a Canadian could walk in, buy one, and register it.
