RIP - IN MEMORIAM - You will be missed
The National Firearms Act of 1934 has nothing to do with Nazi's and everything to do with prohibition and the shity economy of the late 20's and early 30's right here in the USA .

And the supreme court has already seen a case and ruled on the constitutionality of the law in 1939 ,

Gun control laws in the US have always been a knee jerk reaction by politicians to a perceived problem that they just have to do something about not some grand Nazi conspiracy . Is there a financial interest by some to remove the NFA , maybe but the buyers and sellers of 50 K plus collectable full auto's are a minuscule part of the gun owning public . Did the NFA and more importantly the 86 ban on newly constructed full auto kill private small arms development in the US , absolutely . The thing here is people knowing how the government operates and them never releasing control of something once they get their fingers in it and only continually making things worse even when saying they will make it all better , look at the health care debacle that went from repeal to repeal and replace .
It is always funny to me where you get all the people thumping their chests about states rights and how the founding fathers put that in the constitution for a reason , which I whole heartily agree with , just look at any of the pot threads on here for many examples of this but as soon as it goes the other way and state law is the hang up its the job of the feds to remedy it with federal law . This is how we got in this place to begin with and the goal should be to eliminate the federal laws beyond the constitutional reach of the government not make it larger .
