Best Answer

In general, fully automatic firearms are permitted. In additional to Federal registration, a State license may be required for "pistol caliber" machineguns. I would urge you to discuss this with the Firearms Technical section of the BATFE, and not seek legal advice from WikiAnswers- I am NOT an attorney.
