Original Note:
AR-15s are not automatic rifles, they are semi-automatic (one trigger pull for each bullet). https://www.news-press.com/story/news/local/2022/06/01/ar-15-what-it-is-what-it-can-do-and-why-so-many-mass-shooters-like-them/7467147001/# To legally own an automatic weapon in the US, you must hold an FFL, which is an extensive process. https://www.americanbar.org/groups/public_education/publications/teaching-legal-docs/federal-firearms-licensing--an-overview/ You can also apply to purchase one after a year long wait for ATF approval. https://rocketffl.com/who-can-own-a-full-auto-machine-gun/#
