scroll down to DEWAT

Was this an ATF form 5 papered DEWAT from 1968 or prior, or just an "improperly" demilled gun with no papers at all?

If it's on a Form 5, and was registered as a DEWAT MG prior to the 68 amnesty, then it's possible that it can be put on a tax paid Form 1 and reactivated as an MG, since it was already an MG prior to 1986.

I'm guessing it's the latter though from what ATF says.
