All it takes is one report of someone hearing "auto fire" and the ATF will find some authoritarian judge to sign off on a search warrant.Why would I not be able to shoot it?
I have my own range, nobody knows if my guns are registered, I'd be willing to bet half my neighbors wouldn't either.
I have my own range, too, but the last time I was out shooting my AK the sheriff's dept showed up to my house. Said they heard reports of "automatic fire"
Of course the deputies were cool when I told them that it was just a fast finger on a semi-auto AK, but it bothered me that they felt they had to "come check it out just to be sure." Bothered me even more that apparently one of my neighbors (only have about three that would have been in ear shot) called in to report "automatic fire."
