Anyhow:

It's illegal to transfer a fully automatic weapon, aka, a machine gun. You can do straw purchases (private party transfers) all day long for semi-automatics like AR-15, AK-47, shotguns, hunting rifles, etc. You need a special stamp and permit to even own a fully automatic weapon. And if you're caught with one, the penalty is pretty stiff.
An MP5 is a fully automatic weapon therefore it doesn't fall under any guidelines for private transfer regulations. Simply stated, you cannot legally transfer it without the other person going through the proper channels through the ATF. And from what I understand, you can't even have a low level misdemeanor on your record to be approved.
Hopefully that clears it up and the back and forth can stop.
