What LongBough pointed out is true, many people who I know simply take semi-automatic variants of assault rifles and convert them to full combat style assault rifles. You and I both know that any 1/2 decent gunsmith could retrofit any semiautomatic rifle to fully automatic.
I also forgot to add that the gun store audits in California is a joke. I'm considered a "permanent resident alien" in this great State of Kalifornia. I purchased my 1st .22 rifle at a local gun store with no problem, fill out some paper work and provide some government information. Passed the background check with no problem.
I go to Big 5 to purchase a Enfield and Mosin Nagant, the manager tells me that I need the following
1) 3 consecutive different bills to my current address, dating 3 consecutive months
2) Green Card
3) A fucking car registration under my name (WHAT THE FUCK)
What the fuck is wrong with people nowadays? I pay my taxes, never been arrested, and try to lead a productive life. Yet, because I'm not a citizen they make me jump through these damn loops for a WWII rifle? Yet, Bobby Smith in Alabama gets to buy a AK-47's and Street Sweeper shotguns with no problems.
Now some will say, well you dont fall under the same category as a citizen. True, but does filling out paperwork for citizenship (which I have already filed 4 months ago, takes 6-9 months to process) make me any more/less American then somebody who was born here?
Sorry about my ramblings, just frustrated about the whole situation.
