Posti= post sample (post 86) machine gun
02 SOT= title 2 manufacture allowed to make machine guns

Thanks.

So if 02 SOT's can legally create a machine gun by using a real sear. What can they do with them other than shoot them?

So, adding a RDIAS to my 21st century AR is modifying the RDIAS not modifying the lower receiver. I get it. I don't follow the logic but I get it. It is Bureau-speak legalese we're talking about after all.

So long as you have a lower that doesn't have a sear block, it's a "drop in" part.

Understand all except, "local SOTs posti conversion."

SOTs can also buy pre 86 dealer samples (foreign factory import machine guns) which are non transferable to non SOTs but you can keep them after you retire your license.

For example I have pre 86 dealer sample MP5s. Mine are factory machine guns from HK. Nearly every "transferable" MP5 is actually a HK94 conversion done prior to the 86 ban. I have heard there are a few "transferable" factory MP5s on the registry but they would have needed to be imported and registered PRIOR to the 1968 GCA which banned the registration of foreign machine guns for private transfer.

And a pre 68 factory transferable would likely sell for twice the money of a pre 86 transferable conversion MP5 or somewhere in the neighborhood of $40k although I've never ever seen one come to market. I was lucky enough to grab most of my pre 86 dealer sample MP5s when they were around $6k. I can't sell them to anyone but other SOTs but I can keep them if I retire my license.

Sell them to other 02s and PDs. Not much else. But you can take a parts kit and turn it into a fun gun for the cost of a semi auto.

Thank you for the clarification!

"I will hug it and pet it and squeeze it and name it George"...

If I was an 02 SOT I would do the same

My RDIAS is probably my favorite machine gun out of all of the ones I own, but I am an M16 fan since young.

Everyone else here has pretty much answered all of your questions here correctly.

If you want one, put up a WTB ad on subguns or sturmgewehr. That's what I did two years ago when I picked up my all steel one for $17,000. Prices are now $20,000+or-

Have fun!
