    machine guns?

    I am familiar with the requirement for going through the background check to purchase a machine gun, but my question is; are machine guns legal in Mi. if the federal hoops have all been jumped through?

    Thanks for any comments on this....JD

    The latter is certainly the cheaper of the two...but means you need to shoot twice as much to be able to protect BOTH of you.

    "Hun, I had to buy extra ammo. I know I can shoot MY way out...but I am not so sure about getting the BOTH of us out safe. Gonna need to practice that part some more...."

    That should go over smooth.




    OP, as stated above by others, transferable machine guns are civilian legal in MI.

    I don’t understand why anybody needs a machine gun.
