liek someone said before... simply move out of Cali. go see what FREE AMERICA has to offer as far as Gun laws

you didnt mention in your post ..
are you getting a semi or a selective fire weapon?

you can buy and own semi's while not a citizen .

you can not however own a seletive fire weapon .. a " transferable machine gun" < muist be a resident alien at the very least i believe>

this is what the form says
18 U.S.C. 922(g)(5)(B) generally makes it unlawful for any nonimmigrant alien to ship or transport in interstate or foreign commerce, or possess in or affecting commerce, any firearm or ammunition;
or to receive any firearm or ammunition which has shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce.
A nonimmigrant alien is an alien in the United States in a nonimmigrant classification. The defintion includes, in large part, persons traveling temporarily in the United States for business or pleasure, persons
studying in the United States who maintain a residence abroad, and certain foreign workers. The definition does NOT include permanent resident aliens.

and here is the acuall form http://titleii.com/pdf/5330-20.pdf

so if your not a nonimmigrant alien ....and are a resident alien.. you are ok..

still wanna know if its a semi or a full-auto

and yes the $200 Tax stamp does cover the FBI/ATF BG check.
