Apparently, those sections were deleted from the IRS code (26 USC):

PRIOR PROVISIONS A prior section 5851, act Aug. 16, 1954, ch. 736, 68A Stat. 728, as amended by act Sept. 2, 1958, Pub. L. 85-859, title II, Sec. 203(h)(1), (2), 72 Stat. 1428, related to possessing firearms illegally, prior to the general revision of this chapter by Pub. L. 90-618. See section 5861(b) of this title. Provisions similar to those comprising this section were contained in prior section 5812, act Aug. 16, 1954, ch. 736, 68A Stat. 722, prior to the general revision of this chapter by Pub. L. 90-618.

26 U.S.C. §§ 5861 only applies to “machine guns” and certain other specified weapons, and requires (among other thing) that they be registered and have serial numbers. The law does not apply to all guns.

FINALLY!

A non-story from the Obama presidency!

Although the fact that it is a non-story makes it a big story considering the people we’re dealing with...
