    Do they, the FSA, exclusively employ non-FAL holders?!?

I then informed them that I would under no circumstances be registering it as a prohibited magazine as I do not hold an endorsement allowing me to possess them and don't need a 5am wake up visit one day, nor is a belt considered a magazine by law. So now my belt fed auto is registered as a light machinegun with an internal magazine that has a grand capacity of one whole round of ammunition
    Um, just wow. I wonder how many times this has happened...

    The wag in me would like to suggest that you might have sold yourself short, as 500 rounds seems to be an arbitrarily small number for a linked belt that is potentially endless haha. I recall as a pisstake linking three 500 round belts of 5.56 back in the day.
