A private sale (legal in most of the US) is when one private citizen sells a gun to another private citizen. Both must be from the same state. This is opposed to a sale that involves a firearms dealer. Example- my neighbor and I hunt together. He likes a shotgun I have, and wants to buy it from me. He gives me the money, and I give him the shotgun.
Can you register a machine gun from World War 2?
The short answer is NO. For a private citizen in the U.S. to own a machine gun, the machine gun would have to have been made AND registered prior to 1986 if it was manufactured in the U.S. If the machine gun in question is foreign made, It would have to have been made AND registered prior to 1968. As for the issue of machine guns brought back from WWII, there was a short amnesty period during which the federal government allowed these guns to be registered, but that time has long passed. So, if you find an old machine gun in the attic of a WWII veteran, turn it in to the police, or destroy it somehow, as the mere possession of that firearm would be a federal offense.
Is it possible to buy a fully automatic rifle made after the 1986 ban as a US citizen?
Only the fully automatic firearms that were already registered with the BATFE by May 1986 can be transferred to a private citizen. Which is why the price of a LEGAL, papered M16 that can be transferred is about $26,000. Since the supply is finite, prices have risen sharply.

How much does a M-80 assault riffle that shoots a 308 caliber cost?
The Zastava M80 made in Serbia is available in 7.62 x51 (7.62 NATO) which is similar to, but not the same as the Winchester .308 cartridge. IF the M80 was made after May 1986, it cannot be owned by a private citizen in the US- it is capable of full auto fire, and is classed as a machine gun. Only machine guns already registered with the BATFE by May 1986 may be transferred to a private citizen.
