So while the 1986 ban makes it illegal to possess any new machine guns, automatic weapons made and owned before May 1986 are still legal assuming you file all the proper paperwork and jump through the right hoops. My question is whether the ban also outlaws parts for these weapons. Like if someone had an old M16 that completely broke off a separate part and would need a replacement part, does the 1986 ban state that you can't buy a brand new part that would be needed to fix that weapon?
