Constitutional carry IS what our founding fathers wanted and believed in.
Certain limits, however, are necessary. That is partly why the NFA was created. They classify weapons into Classes. Similar to the schedule class of drugs. This was done in the 30's. A time when the mob had more firepower than the police. The NFA balanced things out to make it illegal to even manufacture certain weapons. This gave the power back to the police.
Class 3 weapons include: explosives, suppressors, short barreled rifles/shotguns and machine guns. Flamethrowers, surprisingly, are completely legal in the US, pending the state's individual laws on it. In fact, incendiary weapons can be obtained by using incendiary rounds in a plain old shotgun. Since you are not changing the "weapon" it will be legal depending on your state's regulations.
Don't ever use a Class 3 weapon for self defense though. You WILL be charged with manslaughter in EVERY self defense case as the argument WILL be made SUCCESSFULLY in court of excessive force and that your self defense was "neglectful".
Also, keep those stupid fucking green "Zombie" rounds out of your weapons for self defense. You are basically going to seal your fate for manslaughter if you EVER use those rounds in defense as it is NOT typical ammo and will show a lack of appropriate use and prosecutors will argue that your actions were not something a "reasonable person" (the standard) would use. (I know right, the green tip is the difference between a successful case of self defense and manslaughter!? Believe it or not, IT IS!) Cannot show neglect OR excessive force during a self defense court case (despite the maniac chasing you with a knife
).
I know, doesn't make sense sometimes. But that is how it will play out. Trust me!
