School me on full auto

[burgers]

More specifically the best option for entry level "toys". I have a Spike's lower that I am going to Form 1 for a SBR build...when I get money that is! I am tired of watching all the youtube videos of everyone having fun with automatics so I am wondering what is a "budget" (yeah right) level option for us civilians to buy?? Or is it even possible to find anything under $5k?

 

[Drakkule]

GREAT question! I would love to know the answer also.

One could get a MAC11 and a lage max-11 upper all for around 4.5k all day long for 500 more u can get .22 kit so u could shoot 9 and .22

Generally, most will start out with something from the MAC family. Some cool WWII pieces can be had for under 5K.

If you want to go really cheap, grab a SlideFire stock for $349 an put it on your SBR!

Im saving up to go the mac route.

Still not sure if I want to save the extra 5k and just get a FA uzi though. Anyone who has/shot both have a suggestion there?

save up and find an registered M16 lower and be done with it. If you scrounge around you can find one from 9 to 10k.

Another route would be the Ruger AC556. They're generally a few $k more than the Mac machine guns; but still considerably less than an M16.

I'd imagine that it's VERY hard to find a serviceable M16 for under $10k. Probably closer to $15k. But I fully admit I've never priced 'em.

Good thread, should have asked this myself a long time ago. So what could a guy get a "grease gun" for and where would one begin looking to find one? I like simple ugly guns, and I'd probably never be able to afford a Thompson or BAR.

Can't believe I forgot to mention it earlier, but for current prices you could always check

So there's nothing between the $1000-$2000 range?

We have a UNFIRED 1985 M-11 in stock for 3500.00!!!

 

[pinshooter45]

Looks like I'll be waiting a loooooooooooooooong time to get mine

 

[lovemachine]

I'm so glad I didn't have to put that in purple!

I wish I could afford SOMETHING NFA related.

No kidding

Yeah this post is real, real early planning for me!

So it looks like either save more pennies or just look at a M-11 is the consensus. Although the Slidefire is a interesting short term solution.

MAS-38 might be cheap. I saw one sold for 1800 before..somewhere, I can't recall where though it was in the past two years.

Problem is as far as I know nobody sells 7.65 Longue ammunition, or even brass, anymore.

At knob creek this spring you could of bought a new Mac10 stripped receiver for 1750.00. Saved your money and bout a parts kit to complete it later down the road.
