You do have to jump thru a lot of "hoops" though. You have to pay a $200 tax on each item, you have to submitt finger prints and photos, and a sign off from the local cheif law enforcement officer, to the BATFE and get an approved tax stamp.

"For every action, there is an equal and opposit reaction". If you had a gun that could knock someone end over end, it would do the same to the person pulling the trigger.

Even the rifles are all bolt action! Apart from a single action shotgun and a .22, its basically impossible to get any sort of gun Leo
