∙ 12y agoIn the US, you start by applying to the BATFE for an 01 Dealer Federal Firearms License. That means you ALSO need a premises that is zoned for business, secure storage for firearms, a business license, etc etc etc. You will also need your local Chief Law enforcement officer to sign off on your application, and the money to pay for the license ($200). Then you add the Special Occupational Tax (SOT) for being a Dealer in Class III firearms ($3000) See the link below for more information.

There is a Class II, and a Type 2 FFL. A Type 2 Federal Firearms License is a dealer in ordinary firearms that operates as a pawnshop. A Class II (roman numberal 2) is a manufacturer of National Firearm Act weapons (such as machine guns)
No such license. If you want to POSSESS a Class III firearm, you must be 21, and the transfer of the firearm approved by the US BATFE- but it does not require a license .
There is no "license" to buy Class III firearms (fully automatic or machine guns). The transfer of each machine gun must be approved by the Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. There is a $200 transfer tax for each gun purchased.
To SELL Class III firearms, you must be a dealer that has been licensed to buy and sell class III guns (also known as a SOT- Special Occupational Tax) To OWN a class III firearm, you do not "get a license".

Without possessing a Federal Firearms License and corresponding tax stamps (either Class 3 S.O.T. for a dealer or Class 2 S.O.T. for a manufacturer), you need to be approved for a Class III NFA tax stamp for every automatic weapon you purchase. You would also be limited to automatic firearms manufactured and NFA tax stamped prior to the passage of the 1986 Firearm Owners Protection Act (or, for a fully imported automatic weapon, it would have to be manufactured, imported, and NFA tax stamped prior to the passage of the Gun Control Act of 1968).
only a class 2 firearms dealer can do this legally www.atf.gov mechanical or parts malfunction can cause this to happen
Sure... once you've obtained a Type 8 Federal Firearms License and Class I Occupational Tax Stamp and are registered with the Department of State as such in accordance with ITARS. If you don't meet the aforementioned requirements, the answer is no.
