[The KG9 Kid]

Presuming Heller goes our way, I can see a case making it to SCOTUS in several years that might reopen the NFA to new transferables in states that permit ownership. I think that case would be born by a challenge to any new ban by Congress like the '94 Crime Bill.

What needs to happen is that SCOTUS' ruling destroys the 'Sporting Purpose' language in the 1968 GCA. If the ruling goes our way, that one will be the first to fall. There is no way 'Sporting Purposes' can be defended by the Federal government if SCOTUS rules we have an individual right to keep and bear arms both separate and in concert with the militia.

Congress would have to amend the US Constitution to remove the Militia Clause to head us off at the pass.

Good insight. Few have mentioned the "sporting purpose" issue in light of Heller.
