Well some of us are mature and honorable enough to obey the laws regardless of whether or not we personally like them.It's one of those things that separates citizens from people who just live here.
Thats the thing....
I dont even know.
Lets "say" some guns were to sit in an attic like an arisaka and a carbine and some other old guns from grandpa. Now...well theyve arrived and should they be registered or shouldnt they? Also, What if a man from florida was to give his gun to someone up here...how would that work?
Im in NJ by the way. Not that I have unregistered firearms..

Are you one of "those" people who sits at a broken red light and wont go through it, even though its obvious that its broken?
I always though it was our duty to disobey a law that was invalid due to it violating our rights. Or was that the way it was before "new math" and the 60's? Or was it the 30's? All this stuff is so confusing anymore. I mean, I though I knew what "is" meant, but now I'm not sure about anything.
Oh, I myself go through the broken red light by the way. Just did it again this week too. Had to pass half a dozen people who wouldnt though, and you should have seen the looks I got! Boy, oh boy! I'm sure someone got my plate number and used their cell phone and turned me in too. You know how quick people are to use those cell phones these days and be the good little Nazi... I mean citizens and report any evil doings.

IMHO, the less the gov't knows, the better. In my state they have no 'right' to know and I have lots of them. "Gun Control", however it's done, really tweaks me.
If I wanted to kill somebody, would I use one of my own weapons? No. I'd get something off of the street and dump it when I was done.
Did Prohibition work? How about the 'War on drugs'? If people really want something they will find a way to get it.

AK103K, I like the way you think.
We as American Citizens have a duty and an obligation to question and resist all laws passed by the Tyrants in Washington. We have a duty to avoid any and all taxes, and we have an obligation to avoid registering anything. Which in my book means that I never live in or near any state or municipality that has any registration laws.
The Government has no right to know anything about legal citizens. Notice I said 'LEGAL CITIZENS'. Illegals and terrorists should have no rights.
Buy guns, buy ammo, buy it face to face with cash and the Government be damned. Our system is breaking down rapidly, and I fear we have hard times coming. The Nazi's, Sheeple, Tattletales, and Loyalists will be the first to go.
If you live in Illinois or Noo Yolk then you are saddled with unreasonable and probably unconstitutional regulations, and if I were you, I would move. If you wont, then find a trusted ally in a safe place to store said guns for you. What ever you do, do not knuckle under and register them.
Ha, I live in one of the most remote parts of America. We have an annual gun show. The population of the town increases 5 fold for that weekend. All sorts of stuff trades hands. Cash only, and no papers. That is the only way to live.
SG, you dont have to do the dirty deed yourself, all you have to do is give a local $50 for drugs and he/she will do it for you....

I had that very same hypothetical question myself!!! So when a different city I called from a pay phone and asked the ATF. Just extra precaution, even though it was a hypothetical question.
Suppose I inherit a WWII M-2 carbine one day from a relative that fought with it to defend our country. How do I go about registering and paying to have everything legal.
Answer: You can't. That's what they told me.
So much for trying to do the right thing in those type situations. It's a shame that if someone does have an heirloom of nostalgic representation like that, and wants to be a law abiding citizen..... there is no avenue to pursue that.
Comes to a personal evaluation of risk assessment I guess. Just like I tell my kids..... weigh the consequences of your actions and make a conscious decision. If I get caught.... will it be worth it. Sometimes it is... Sometimes it isn't. I don't bash anyone for taking either side on this one.
I can defend my home and enjoy shooting with or without full auto, personally. Even if a 'civil uprising' takes place.... I got no reservations about my puny semi-autos. lol But suppressors?.... THAT is a different story!!!! LMAO One day when things stop breaking around the house I will get one more.

Figure that one out. Its "legal" to own NFA weapons under federal law, but since the amnesty was closed (and why was it?), you cant register one (machine gun) that isnt already in the registry. You'd think they would want to account for them all and get the tax money for the treasury to boot.
With all the WWII and Korean vets dying off, and all sorts of nice, well cared for, collectibles turning up every day, it realy is a sin. Actually, its a crime, and not by those who have the guns. Then again, I guess as law abiding citizens, we get what we're willing to put up with from our "servants".
There ya go!It's better to ask for forgiveness than to beg for permission.
I agree...wtf? This goes against everything I was taught as a child haha. Why get locked up over an unregistered firearm.....and then ask for forgiveness when walking down to the station and registering it is no big deal. Why the hell do I care if the gov. knows I own an arisaka or some other dub dub two rifle?
Jeeze
I know people are against gun controll but whats the big whoop about letting the gov. know what you have? It just seems like everone now days has the same "THERE OUT TO GET US" attitude. Do I beleive we should defend our rights? Yes....but isnt it a tad extreme?
Red light-K turn and go around the block?
My apologies. For some reason I totally misread the initial situation. 
I thought he was talking about registering a Class III weapon. As in one from the war that paw-paw gave him.
No registration required here in MS..... so I can't speak to that situation. Only to the class III situation I referenced in my first post.
Sorry about that.
And I won't even comment on the obvious debate about to start here. haha
