    I guess when I say machine gun I’m meaning (incorrectly) a rifle like an AR-15. Whether it be single shot (is that semi-auto) or automatic. Although I believe you can’t get autos as that’s why people use bump stocks; I again guess.

      An AR-15 is a semi-automatic sporting rifle. A machine gun is something like an M249 SAW or an M60, and not available to most people. You can get a permit from the ATF, but from start to finish the gun will cost you around $60,000.
