I am a Life Member of the NRA. That said, if the firearms are promptly destroyed then where’s the harm? Does the owner need to toss the firearm into a shredder? Would that be acceptable?
That doesn't mean that you understand the Politics, Lawfare, Unconstitutional and Illegal Actions of ATF Bureaucrats, Corruption of Federal Law Enfarcement, Kangaroo Courts, Legal Machinations, and Marxist Nazi Arrogance.
...if the firearms are promptly destroyed then where’s the harm?
That is ABSOLUTELY not the point.
The Point is that there are a group of Leftist that is ABOVE THE LAW, and ordinary citizens that HAVE NO RIGHTS WHATSOEVER.
