Default Re: To all the gun nuts out there.

Obviously people have the right to own machine guns. What little case law there is on the 2d Amendment allows them IMO. And yes, many places people can own one, although you have to do the constitutionally suspect Class III paperwork and tax stamp. This isn't close to where the line is considering you can own one in free states right now, at least if they were manufactured before 1986. (The post-1986 law is constitutionally suspect BTW, and the 9th circuit had the commerce clause case on a personally manufactured machine gun.)

RPGs and rockets and such are probably not going to be protected by the courts. Well, perhaps not machine guns in today's anti-gun climate.
