Disclaimer: This is in no way based upon anything having to do with me or my family, merely a hypothetical situation.
Ok, let’s say that a guy’s grandfather purchased something like a Thompson 1928 model in the 1940s. I imagine this would be grandfathered in since it is before the NFA was passed. Now if the grandfather died, and was survived by his wife, who then gives the gun to her grandson, how should this be dealt with legally? I imagine if you did not get the proper permits BEFORE taking possession of the gun you would be in a world of trouble. I know the ATF looks down on you getting permitted after the fact.
