Thank you for your response but what is a Class III weapon?

Full auto weapons are class 3. So are suppressors.

Both of these are easily obtained here in a free state.

full auto.

I think you can still own them if you bought them prior to a certain date.

Problem is, if you bought something like that back before they started keeping records (which is a violation of our rights) How can you prove when you bought it?

I bought stiff legally with cash in Ca before all this horseshit that could get me in trouble in Ca now as I have no receipts to prove when I bought them.

There is not such a thing as a Class 3 weapon. This is a misnomer in gun parlance. The class 3 term is the correct term for a (Federal Firearm License) FFL holder that pays a Special Occupational Tax (SOT) in addition to their FFL to give them legal access to deal, sell, transfer, repair, mfg, etc Ntional Firearm Act of 1934 (NFA) Title 1 or Title 2 firearms.

An FFL with a class III SOT is usually a retail gun store that can deal in NFA items. Title 1 firearms are typically non Title 2 firearms. Title 2 of the NFA are either fully automatic firearms, suppressors, destructive devices, short barrel rifles, short barrel shotguns, or any other weapons (AOW).

I am a Type 7 FFL, Class 02 SOT. I can not only sell Title 2 firearms, I can mfg them.

Anyways, there is no such thing s a class 3 firearm. However there is a SOT tax FFL holders can pay to deal in them. The correct term is Title 2 Firearms under the NFA of 1934.

. it's kinda like breaking gun enthusiasts from using the term "bullet" rather than the term "ammunition" or "cartridge". Everyone knows what you are trying to say, but technically it is incorrect.

It may seem petty or insipid, but if you are going to debate gun grabbers, liberals, or ignorant people to pro gun arguments, you might as well get it right. Gungraboids purposely used firearm terms to misconstrue full auto/select fire ASSAULT RIFLES with the made up political term of "assault weapon" in order to make ignorant voters think they were lumping in their semi auto clones into the ban.
