It depends on where you are. In the U.S. most states allow ownership of machine guns, but by federal law, it must have been manufactured and registered before May 1986. To purchase a machine gun in the U.S. you must register it with the ATF and pay a $200 tax stamp fee.

But if you want to own your very own cannon you can (and some folks do)
