No violent crimes committed with legal full auto firearms from 1934 to 1986. This was not good enough. Those who want the population disarmed manuvered the system to "freeze" the supply to prevent more people from obtaining these firearms, even after registering them and jumping through extensive legal hoops.
That says a great deal about what the "goal" of the gun banners is.

I kind of figured that they had never been registered with an NFA stamp. That makes them worth a lot less.

NFA, GCA, and FOPA suck, and are unconstitutional. IMHO.

The father of a buddy of mine was a State Policeman out of the Columbia, KY barracks back in the mid 1980’s.
The dad took me into their walk in gun safe. Must have been 20 Thompsons racked up in there. Most with the Snail Drums.
I was surprised at how heavy the weapon was. Asked him what they use them for - and he said “To show off!”
I doubt they’ve been fired in years.
Wonder if they are still in one piece.

Yet another nasty piece of legislation from FDR’s time....the stench of his reign seems to last forever.
