As for getting one... I have no clue. The US Market dried up in 1968 when the Gun Control Act prevent any foreign made automatic weapon being imported into the USA> So what is here is here and the prices are sky high.... like $100,000 US.
I have seen one on sale here for $2500 about 5 years ago but nothing since, I am guessing my best option is to scour European collections and more than likely Russian sources.
I am resigned to what ever I get needing a lot of restoration work but I am not too worried about that either.
