Very shakey ground here.....ask ole Tac-when he shows up.
These continue to change, as the BATF&"E" (LOL) continues to review these and others of like-ness.

The problem lies with certain kits.....some contain full-auto parts.....this is a very gray area to flirt with. Even those that don`t....

LTS is offering solid advice. Most, if not all, of the UZI kits being offered for sale have been disassembled from full-auto guns. Manufacturing a receiver and assembling from one of these kits would almost certainly be considered manufacturing a machine gun.

one new guy asking about subguns, another new member asking about about suppressors on their first post...
Good thing I'm not paranoid.

Just like the AR market, big range of parts out there, and too much fuzzy / poorly-worded laws governing what is and ISN'T 'legal'.
Stick with the laws (when you can figure them out), it's better that way.
