One of the best ways to get answers to NFA questions is to subscribe to Small Arms Review. They have a legal column that takes up issues like some that you raise.
I live in a C&R state so my experience may not transfer directly. IMO however the inspection fears are overrated. Dealers get compliance inspections, sometimes regularly, sometimes (I've heard) not so regularly.
The MP5 is fun, but don't knock other simpler subguns either. For more on this subject look for other threads on NFA basics. I have posted on several of them.
