Ignoring the law and keeping banned items is an action one might consider when being left Grandpa's banned items. Postulating overthrowing the government is not in the domain of responses that I wanted to discuss as practical solutions to the problem an heir might have.

If an item is grandfathered under the law, it is legal. That is why "pre-ban" guns are for sale everyday on Gunboards and other venues.
Why do you think there would be some legal issues over a legally grandfathered item?
Are you thinking about folks "hiding" guns after a general ban / confiscation?
It all depends.
Perhaps things will be like Australia and the guns will go to the thriving organized crime run black market. Perhaps the family would like to trade them for Rocket Launchers, LOL?

In fact, recent research conducted by the ABC and Fact Check has suggested that although the rate of firearm suicide had already fallen 67 percent since 1996, the reforms didn't have as much of an impact on firearm homicide rates.

They could try amnesty boxes at the police stations to drop off your illegal weapons or go house to house multiple times to ensure all weapons are confiscated.
That will work as it always in history...just like the instant general uprising, LOL.
