The dusty desert of Lucin, Utah, isn't for everyone. It's lonely, windy and hot. But for Ivo Zdarsky, it's home. The inventor, who in 1984 escaped Czechoslovakia in a homemade aircraft, lives in an airplane hangar about 25 miles from his nearest neighbor. Like we said, Lucin isn't for everyone.

So, an aviator about the same age as me right now built a plane from scratch, flew it across the border early in the morning, landed in a busy airport with the high risk of an malfunction, authorities spotting, and shooting him, and now he lives happily in the middle of nowhere. Remarkable guy.

@That_NJ_guy 5 лет назад

@@lsswappedcessna not legal in the US unless you have a manufacturing license or one of the FFL licenses that can do it which requires a business and ATF visit and high cost. Those made after Post-86 ban cannot be owned by the public. He could also buy one of the Pre-86 ban automatics which is probably legal in the Utah and most states but not in all states. They have special paperwork, a $200 tax stamp, harsh requirements compared to standard firearms of owning and transportation, and also cost a minimum of about $4k for the really cheap ones but the better ones are normally $15k-$25k and they can go over $200k at times if they are rare and usually historical important.

Miguel Hernandez My grandpa picked an ERMA MP40 off a dead German paratrooper and left it to me when he died. It’s my most prized possession (: He could always get an FFL and just get dealer samples too

@That_NJ_guy 5 лет назад

@@kaylaslip1459 that's super cool! I hope you did all the documentation that's required to own that machine gun (the paperwork mainly since you don't have to buy it) you don't get in trouble because government nonsense. Definitely a collection piece and I'm sure something you hold dear coming from family. Thanks for sharing.
