Can you buy a full atomatic ak-47 in the US?

Answer 1

It is possible, and there are a couple ways to go about it. The main one is to find a transferrable one which is for sale. For a fully imported rifle, it would have to have been imported and licenced prior to the passage of the Gun Control Act of 1968. For an imported rifle which was refitted with enough US made parts that it was no longer considered an imported firearm and converted to full auto, it would have to have been converted and licenced prior to the passage of the Firearms Owners Protection Act of 1986. Once you find one, you need to find a licenced Class III dealer, through which you will file your paperwork and pay your $200 for the transfer tax, and send it to the BATFE. Once it's approved, you'll have that dealer receive it for you, and you'll be able to take possession of it from them.
