Yes, there is the presumption of innocence. But it really works out to be more complicated that you seem to think. It's really all explained in detail in this thread, so you might want to read it carefully.

Sorry, my reply was sarcasm.

What you can't seem to get your head around is that it's your responsibility to show that the NFA weapon was legally possessed.

Is it your responsibility to prove you are not a felon to shoot at a public range? Is it your responsibility to prove that AK was not stolen? Is it your responsibility to prove that gun was not used in a crime?
Title II items are not illegal. Why do you want people to automatically assume they are?
I compare this to a cop pulling over a guy only to see if he has insurance. Yes, they law might state that he has to have insurance, but the cop does not have the right to pull a guy over ONLY to check his insurance.
It seems to be a case of you wanting people to automatically think they are illegal, and we want people to assume that they are legal unless they have other reasons to think they are not.
OUR attitudes sometimes hurt us more than we think.
