Why should we Free BSD?
Amnesty? Oh boy, this is going to be fun with all the 5320.20's.....
Does ATF, or any other Federal agency even have the legal authority to waive assessment of a statutorily-defined tax?
Ha! Excellent question and wouldn’t surprise if they know the answer is “No” … and that, the draft of the form letter surprising everyone with a, “Oops, we made a mistake, now Everyone Pony Up $200 per registration!” simply hasn’t been leaked yet …
Worsley
I apologize for hurting your feelings!
The weird thing is that ATF has no constitutional authority to make law.
The power to interpret law, absent oversight, is the power to bend law into whatever shape you want it to be.
They have given "amnesty" times in the past when they were up to these shenanigans before. One example was in 1994, the "streetsweeper" shotgun was deemed a destructive device, made registry required, and waived the tax for a time period up front.
On a twist of irony, if chevron difference is ruled as overreach, we might need to revisit the streetsweeper decision.
I wish I had gotten one of those when I had the chance... I know they are stupid, but my God, I wanted one.
hush your mouth
The truth is what I say it is... as quoted by Senator Charles Meachum
you and me both. Never really cared about them until the big hubbub about them made me want one... or two...

In this case, yes. NFA'34 specifically authorized amnesty periods.

Oh man you just brought back memories of the trailer park in the 90s. One of the neighbors owned one, I presume legally, and my dad keep wanting to buy one before they were banned. I was just a young lad at the time eating ninja turtles ice cream bars with the bubblegum eyes, from the ice cream man who also sold the older kids cigarettes out of his ice cream truck, while listening to Guns N’ Roses with red head Carl who lost some fingers in a lawn mower accident.
It was a simpler time.
I have to be honest, but unless I am naïve or misreading all of this, I feel pretty optimistic about our future. The 2A community has had unprecedented support recently with some key wins in court. I admit there are a few more dominos that need to be in place and we still have a long way to go for this all to come together, but I really think we have a good foundation and momentum to make all these dumb "rules" just go away. We might even have a little steam left to threaten the 1934 NFA itself!
Let's not forget that this would never had been possible if it had not been for the current regime of fist beating, fascist "karen" leftists that could not help but let all their politics be about sanctimonious virtue signaling and petty control. If they had not forced us down this road, all of the current 2A infringement would have kept on status quo, due to the near-sighted "progressive" meddling, we are now on a journey of reversal. The left is unwittingly undoing years of bite sized gun control. By pushing their agenda, it is being brought to court and revealed for what it is, unconstitutional. Just like Icarus flying too close to the sun, they are trying to take too much and with too little actual support. I would like to thank them from the bottom of my heart.

Hahahahaha. You got it!!!
Local LEO's don't have the authority to charge anyone in Federal court, can't enforce federal "rules."
Hmmm. What if you attached a "sighting rod" along the barrel? Say, 8 inches of 1/4 inch dowel?
