Anyone who is importing MiG 17's is at a whole different level from the guy who has found an NFA firearm in the attic.* Not really comparable. There is no guarantee what will happen when John Doe tells them he has a dozen machineguns in the attic. I have known of similar cases where no attorney was needed and everyone parted friends, but again no one can be sure. The BATFE agent who has just been told he better step up arrests or be fired does not have the same attitude as the one who has just left his retirement dinner.
*Did that possibly take place in bond, so there was no actual import or attempt to import?
