They don't have a record of doing well when using their own reasoning as their entire case.

Something else about the $200 "tax stamp" that the ATF says you don't have to pay during the 120 day registration period...the ATF lacks the Constitutional authority to waive any taxes, since that lies solely with the Legislature. So what the ATF has said is that the $200 isn't being waived, they just aren't requiring you to pay it.
So, at some point, the ATF will probably say everyone who owes it will have to pay it or lose their tax stamp.
