The title says it all. I am considering a purchase, and know there are many educated opinions here. :tiphat:

Not that I want to purchase a full-auto model, nor can I afford one...but, with an M-16 you can get parts pretty easy it would seem, OR...with an AK-whatever, its so tough you'd have to do something insane to break it...just my .02 worth...

:drool: Too many to list. I think a RDIAS would be the most fun for the buck at the end of the day but I'd love to get a Thompson... and a BAR... list goes on.

Ditto an M16 for the parts availabiity, or possibly a suppressed MP5.

I'm partial to the M-2 also. Unfortunately, between initial cost and ammo cost, the sound of brass hitting the ground is drowned out by the sucking sound of your retirement fund draining.

Several years ago, I had the pleasure of shooting an automatic integrally-suppressed Ruger 10/22. If the law changed, I would like something similar, because I could actually afford to shoot it. ;-)

M-2. Because if I bought one of those and the three boxcars of .50 BMG i would need to feed it the first couple months, it would mean I had just won both the Texas Lotto and the Powerball... ;-)

On a slightly smaller scale, I'd love to have a genuine Thompson.

Wow! There's some good one's there.

M2 would be nice and the BAR, but I've always thought a Tommy gun would be too cool.

get a registered pack or sear for hk platform. You can shoot everything from 9mm to beltfeds. Buy clone pistols and stocks for them and you can have short barreled rifles without a tax stamp on it. (just remove the stock when the sear is in a different host). Plus much like an AR rdIAS you can run the piss out of it and still sell it for more later.

This would give you the most options.

I've always thought an Uzi would be fun though.
