You know the revolvers cowboys are famous for using are all pre-1898 and more than good guns, yeah? Assuming they’ve been maintained properly, that is
Even the black powder stuff is still going to be really damn good for most peoples uses (accuracy at short to medium range is just fine), I wouldn’t assume just because it’s older or powder that it’s not a good gun
I have a Steyr m95. Originally built in 1895. Has an internal magazine, straight pull bolt action, and shoots a surprisingly big bullet. It’s pretty dangerous. Sadly the ammo is so expensive I’ve only shot 20 rounds through it.
1984? In some states, yeah, It would have been that easy.
In 1984, a full auto would still have been on an NFA registry. Open, rather than closed like today, but still not a simple one step sale.
This is of course, fact checking the finer points of gun law in a movie about a time traveling robot.
If you find a one in a million firearms store who buys their own stock and resells out back illegally, it still is.
Also some pawn shops, technically anything made before a certain date is an Antique and skips a lot of regulations.
They’ll pry my right to sell a late medieval firearm to children from my cold dead hands.
Antique guns are pre 1898. Those guns are far more dangerous as a club than a gun.
