I don't believe most of the posts here have correctly identified the issue.
Whether or not you believe this arrangement is "clearly" a machinegun, that isn't BATF's position if they originally ruled otherwise.
The issue here should be whether a citizen is entitled to rely on a government opinion letter, just as he would with internal revenue. A revenue ruling on a specific case is a very strong defense to the service's later change of heart.
Why should BATF be different?
Akins, if that describes what has happened here, best of luck to you.
