Does ATF, or any other Federal agency even have the legal authority to waive assessment of a statutorily-defined tax?
The power to interpret law, absent oversight, is the power to bend law into whatever shape you want it to be.The weird thing is that ATF has no constitutional authority to make law.
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.Does ATF, or any other Federal agency even have the legal authority to waive assessment of a statutorily-defined tax?

The truth is what I say it is... as quoted by Senator Charles MeachumThe power to interpret law, absent oversight, is the power to bend law into whatever shape you want it to be.
you and me both. Never really cared about them until the big hubbub about them made me want one... or two...I wish I had gotten one of those when I had the chance... I know they are stupid, but my God, I wanted one.
In this case, yes. NFA'34 specifically authorized amnesty periods.Does ATF, or any other Federal agency even have the legal authority to waive assessment of a statutorily-defined tax?

On a twist of irony, if chevron difference is ruled as overreach, we might need to revisit the streetsweeper decision. View attachment 379290

Local LEO's don't have the authority to charge anyone in Federal court, can't enforce federal "rules."Nah, they will just let local LEOs do it one at a time when someone gets caught with one at the range or in their car.
Hmmm. What if you attached a "sighting rod" along the barrel? Say, 8 inches of 1/4 inch dowel?I agree it's all speculation right now. But imma be real pissed if I get a 10.5 lower and then have to register it as a SBR and its not MD compliant if it's under 29". I just want some clear answers before I but my upper kit.
