Anyone know of a company that reproduces semi-automatic copies of the worlds best or most famous SMGs?
What a GREAT idea for a company, if someone hasn't already strarted it.
The engineering is already there. Make it in the US so the parts aren't imported. The demand would definately be there, and the machining processes wouldn't be much more than for handguns, particularly because the R&D is pretty much done. And the material costs would likely be less because of stronger and cheaper materials.
I can't imagine that the weapons of WWII are copyrighted. One could probably find design plans or reverse engineer these weapons quite easily. And as long as the weapon is designed semi-auto only, the ATF isn't an issue.
