New LWRC subgun
http://youtu.be/QuJ7mPMINOQ?t=2m30s
Thoughts? Supposedly it will eventually come in 9mm, .40 and .45 caliber. Unlikely I'll ever own one due to MD's new laws being retarded, though.

I have wanted a 45 cal sub gun for a long time. I don't know if I would drop the cash for one though. I guess it would depend on the price point. It looks like a more compact UMP 45.

Here is a question for you folks in the know.
I see this gun and I automatically want one no doubt. But of course there is that damned $200 SBR tax stamp and another $200 stamp for a suppressor.
Now for the sake of argument let's say this also has 3 round burst/fully auto variants available to 'someone' IE law enforcement or whatever.
I am not quite sure of how the whole 1986 law applies when it comes to new fully auto rifles etc. I have heard in other places that '1986' essentially stopped the production and sale of any new fully auto firearms on the civilian market... well I guess so... but I am not sure. So for those who buy full auto sub guns, they have to buy guns that were already out before 1986? Or can any 'new' guns like this be sold in 3 round/full auto provided you do all the bullshit paperwork and pay all your taxes on it?
What's the story? $200 bucks and you can get an SBR. $200 and you can get a suppressor. I assume it's another $200 if you want to transfer a class 3 weapon (full auto)... but can I buy a NEW full auto provided I jump through the hoops or is that a no no?

no auto unless it was manufactured and registered by 1986 unless you're a law enforcement agency or a class 3 FFL with a demo letter from a law enforcement agency.

So my hopes of buying a brand spanking new fresh off the factory floor MP5 are shot all to hell unless I become a class 3 dealer?
Why do you need a demo letter from law enforcement? What is the purpose of that? So a regular class 3 just allows you do deal in pre-1986 full auto... but you have yet another hoop if you want a 2015 fully auto (even as a dealer)?

As I understand it it's because they want to limit civilian ownership of full auto weapons. You need a class 3 FFL, so that limits the amount of people right off the bat, especially since the ATF doesn't really approve FFLs without a storefront anymore. On top of that, they don't want people to get their class 3 FFLs just to be able to have full auto weapons, so they want you to actually be trying to sell one to an authorized entity (law enforcement agency), hence their requirement for a demo letter from a law enforcement agency.

I must have one of these! SBR with an Osprey 45K on the end. If the photos are to be believed, this will take AR pistol grips and triggers. Can anyone confirm?
