Here in Germany you can buy everything except weapons.
We have the most strict weapons law of Europa, even to carry a knife longer than 12cm (4,7in) or a pocket knife you can handle (open the blade) with just one hand is prohibited.

Licence to Carry a Concealed Weapon.
Knife laws vary state to state usually the more populous the more restrictions
USA does not equal youtube...
Full auto and other mil type items are highly restricted.
I apologize.I'm trying not to generalize.I wanted to say that in my country and in many other conutries something like that is unimaginable.IMO if something is "just" restricted it is still available.I might be wrong but I think that those guys shooting AKs,ARs are not all trained or Law Enforcment or military etc.
I know that there are different regulations in many states and there has been a debate about an assault rifle ban for years.But it's still much easier to get a licence for a weapon (rifle or pistol) in the US and I find it great.Plus you can shoot them because there are many shooting ranges.
My country is the opposite.The government often considers you as a potential criminal.If you like target shooting or guns people often think you are a psychopat or something...

We already have that air gun license. You need to have a "little" weapon permit
to carry an air gun.

Except for Forest Rangers etc., nobody is allowed to have any weapon. You can join a shooting club, after practicing one year(!) and with the recommandation of the board, you are allowed to make a weapons permit just to buy an own gun like .22 but you are not allowed to carry it.

I don't understand why it would matter that people aren't officially trained by some entity in the usage of ARs and AKs. Many gun owners are self taught, or taught by someone else who already has experience with a weapon from various education sources.
With things like this:
I don't think military or law enforcement training means a damn in terms of people being "safe" with their firearms. That's up to the individual and if he/she is stupid enough, hopefully they win a Darwin award and blow their own heads off, and don't injure someone else in the process.
As for the other comment about fully automatic weaponry, unless you are both very wealthy and are willing to put up with enormous amounts of inane government bullshit, you will not be able to ever get a hold of anything fully automatic.
Full autos were banned from civilian sale in 1986 under the FOPA (Firearm Owners Protection Act, ironically) any full auto you can purchase today is at least that old. Not only this, but on top of the purchase price (which starts around twenty thousand US dollars and UP) you have to pay a tax of $200, get a background check, and all the other usual baggage that goes along with purchasing a firearm.
Also many public ranges do not allow full autos, except on certain days. So having one is more for very wealthy collectors then anything else.
