Ok if I were to acquire the parts to make my AR fully auto but wanted to do it legally I know I would need a C3. My question is how can i go about acquiring one of those for a gun I already own?

Simple answer is you cant.

Expensive answer is spend the $8k-$10k on a registered sear or lightning link.

Long answer is you become a FFL, get you're SOT pay for post sample stuff or become a Class 2 manufacturer.

I have tried to avoid it but I guess your right I will get my FFL and deal with the hassle and fees. What is an SOT?

SOT is Special Occupation Tax. It's your additional licensing to sell and transfer Title 2 weapons except DDs.

Good luck and hope you knwo some friendly Chief LEOs. :D

I checked with the ATF after I get my FFL all i need is a class 3 license and i can buy and sell machine guns and short shotguns. I am going to submit my application in december and hope it goes through before Obama takes voer.

Good luck.

I'll eventually get around to doing mine. It's just to much of a pain in the ass right now for what it's worth in my eyes.
