Full auto M-16's originally retailed at $400. M16-A1 at ImpactGun's is currently priced to sell at $19k. A BAR recently sold for $23k.

FedGov over exceeded their authority and created a limited market. Demand has only gone up. Simple Econ 101.

What's sad, is that, Constitutionally, you and I are more entitled to own M4s/M16A2s, M203s, M240s, M2s that a semi-auto AR-15, if you subscribe to the TRUE definition and regulation of a citizen militia.

To be curt: we should have the exact same small arm that is BEARABLE that is currently in use by any military or LEO organization.

....If only our Congresscritters would only read that precious piece of paper instead of wiping their asses with it....

Sure enough. By rights that odious part of the US Code should be ruled unconstitutional, and manufacturing of full autos and happy switches would begin in earnest.

Don't worry, though: economics and other scientific laws have a way of defeating politicians. Supply will come from elsewhere, kind of like the case was with alcohol and is with drugs. Demand MUST be satisfied.
