Full description and what we offer
Midwest Tactical operates as the #1 volume dealer of Class 3 transferable machine guns in the United States. Unlike semi-auto firearms that lose 30-40% of their value the moment you leave the store, transferable machine guns are federally limited, collectible assets that consistently appreciate over time.
When Congress passed the Firearm Owners' Protection Act in 1986, they capped the civilian supply of transferable machine guns. Every transferable gun in private hands was manufactured or legally registered before May 19, 1986—that cutoff created permanent scarcity.
The numbers tell the story: M16 rifles worth $8,000 in 2010 are now valued over $30,000. HK MP5s appreciate like Rolex watches. Uzis, MAC-10s, and AK variants climb steadily year after year—even during stock market crashes and economic uncertainty.
Transferable machine guns are fully legal civilian-owned firearms that were properly registered under the National Firearms Act (NFA) before the 1986 freeze. They're Title II firearms—heavily regulated but 100% legal to own if you meet eligibility requirements and complete ATF Form 4 approval.
Common misconceptions: - "Machine guns are illegal" — False. Pre-1986 transferable guns are completely legal for civilians. - "You need a Class III license" — No. Dealers need the license; owners just need an approved Form 4.
Midwest Tactical walks you through every step:
1. Select your firearm — M16, HK MP5, Reising M50, M60 E6 LMG, or other pre-1986 models 2. Transfer through Class III FFL/SOT dealer — Midwest Tactical handles this 3. Submit ATF Form 4 including: - Two passport-style photographs - Full fingerprint set (FBI cards) - $200 NFA tax stamp payment - Local Chief Law Enforcement Officer (CLEO) notification 4. Background check — Processing times typically several months to over a year 5. Approval & possession — Tax stamp issued, take possession from dealer or trust
You can apply as an individual or use a gun trust, which simplifies shared ownership and succession planning with separate responsible person questionnaires.
To own a transferable machine gun, you must be: - U.S. citizen, at least 21 years old - Not prohibited by federal law (no felony convictions, not adjudicated mentally unfit, etc.) - Able to pass standard Form 4473 background check - Resident of a state that permits machine gun ownership
M16 Rifle - Appreciated from $8,000 (2010) to $30,000+ (current)
