You would first have to get the NRA to embrace this idea. In order for that to happen, a large number of members would have to push for it. If the NRA got behind it (which I don't see happening in my lifetime), and if the Nation keeps swinging toward more firearms freedoms, and if bumpfire stocks become commonplace and accepted by the gun owning communities, and a bunch of other "ifs", I could see the registry reopening on a limited basis.
Why did I mention bumpfire stocks? 1. It has the potential of introducing lots of folks to something like full-auto fire making them desire more; and 2. The BATFE might just figure - why not simply register more machine guns than to permit the proliferation of bumpfire stocks (that they can't even tax).
