Italian,
Machineguns are transferabble to civilians as long as they were registered prior to 1986 if american made and prior to 1968 if foreign made. If the nfa firearm was registered on a form 10 it can not be transferred to a civilian but if it is on a form 4 or 5 it can be transferred from a pd. Before 1986 most us made machineguns were transferred to police dept on a tax free form 5 and they are transferrable back to civilians. Foreign nfa like mp5 by HK are not transferrable to civilians unless brought in pre 68 or built out of a sp89 by a us class 02 manufacturer before 86.
What a confusing rediculous bunch of useless laws we have.
