Difference being, they defunded the office that would normally let you register new NFA. A defacto ban.

That’s true, but many, many many more people own “assault weapons” than ever owned NFA weapons. And if they outlaw their expanded definition of “assault weapons” (basically any magazine fed semi-auto) we will effectively be disarmed. Might as well not have the 2nd amendment at all.
