A friend who is in the military came home on leave. His job in Afghanistan is to man the belt fed machine gun on an armored vehicle. You could say that he is a professional machine gunner. While he was home he went to the range with me and shot AR’s. His personal rifle is set up just like his issue M-16 except that it lacks the full auto feature.
I just find it kind of odd that a person who the government trusts to sit behind a belt fed machine gun all day every day for six months is prohibited by law from owning a non registered full auto weapon during the two weeks that he is home on leave.
