Depens on where you are. In the US, ordinary citizens may own semi-auto firearms, an in most states, fully automatic firearms (machine guns). They are required to be registered with the BATFE, and a transfer tax paid when fist buying one. They are VERY expensive, but legal. In other countries, other laws.
