It is Florida but a rocket launcher is actually pretty easy to get. In Canada you can buy a mortar without any paperwork beyond the receipt at the cash. The shells on the other hand are VERY illegal. Apparently we are following the Chris Rock theory of gun control on this one.
I'm not sure how easy it is to get a rocket launcher in Washington, but I do know you can get a high-powered rifle more easily than you can a pistol. (The reason is that pistols are easily concealed, whereas a rifle, by definition, is not. Now, if you walk around on the street with one, that is likely to get you into trouble.)
