Yes. However legal machine guns are very tightly controlled.

States and local governments can make their own laws that are more restrictive, so that is not true everywhere.

Federal law requires that you apply for a "transfer tax stamp" which requires a fair amount of paperwork, background check, approvals, etc. and $200. The law is very strict and violations can get you many years in prison.

Federal law prohibited the making of machine guns after 1986 (except for police and military use). Thus, there are a limited number of legal machine guns, and the prices for them are usually over $10,000 and up. yes, but you must have a special permit for one. not just a regular gun permit. and it would be really hard to get it. It isn't a permit; it's a tax stamp. It isn't that hard to get, it just takes a while to get the approval, usually several months.
