That is not true. As an NFA owner, I speak from experience and knowledge. Also see:VMI77 wrote:There is another aspect of registration under the NFA we haven't been discussing: you give up your 4th Amendment right against search and seizure. Registration under the NFA allows the BATF to enter your home to inspect your registered devices anytime they please.

They still have to have a warrant and reasonable articulate suspicion to justify requesting access to your home.
Not "anytime they please".
Even Title II/Class 3 dealers are given notice before having their premises inspected for compliance - (Correction, FFL/SOT/Class 3 Dealers CAN be subject to inspection without notice DURING regular business hours).
As a Form 4 NFA owner, you do NOT have to give up your 4th Amendment rights - at least not yet.
