The gun cannot be legally imported unless the importer figures out how to get Congress to amend the May 19, 1986 Gun Owner's Protection Bill that forbade manufacture, import, traffic and possession of any fully automatic weapon not listed in the National Firearms Registry as of 2400 hours May 19, 1986.
The esteamed Mr TAC is correct in his estimate of purchase price in the USA.
Were it in the USA and legally registered, it would be considered a Curio and Relic which tends to add a premium of 10-15% to the value of any transferrable automatic weapon. At the Chantilly show this past weekend, West Hurley AO guns, now classed as C&R due to very limited production, were going for $16, 000.
