Dear Mr. Anti gun. That horse already left the stable, my guess is the Founding Father’s chained it open to keep even idiots free.
I always like the look on there face when they say “but you can’t own a tank”, and I respond with “say’s who” and make them look it up!
I know a guy with an M8 Grayhound armored car. He has the 37mm M6 gun in it, and it works. All he had to do is pay $200 for the NFA paperwork for the destructive device to make the gun operational.
There’s a few of the operational fighters in private hands, IIRC. They’re really high maintenance, like 6 or 10 hours of maintenance for every hour in the air. Pretty sure I remember an F-18 being sold on eBay. Found it
If you thought machine guns were a rich man’s toy, you aren’t thinking big enough.
What SiG said.
it’s not the purchase price, it’s having to keep 2-3 A&P guys with F-16 experience on the payroll 24/7, and keeping the parts in stock, so you could kick the tires and light the fires once in awhile.
It’d also make it work moving to a Class II-friendly state, but the months-long wait for the BATFE tax stamp for the 20mm would be an eternity.
Lottery win bucket list?
In a heartbeat!
Bonus: Never going through a TSA grab & grope line again.
