The goal of bureaucracies is to expand and survive. Government entities do not give up any power willingly. All that governments do is continue to slowly expand their role in people's lives and make their daily functions relevant to the average person, despite creating inefficiency and taking away rights. It is naive to think that any major pieces of legislation (like the 1932 NFA) that creates thousands of jobs and shit loads of tax revenue would be willingly shut down.

Think of tax code. The United States has one of the most complicated systems of taxation in the world. In the past, even when multiple politicians and presidents ran on a platform to lower taxes and simplify them, all that has been achieved is minor changes here and there. Most of the time the "change" in Washington is merely an amendment to existing laws which works to create further intricacies and closes other loopholes.

The only time that restrictive laws get reversed is when they become hilariously useless or antiquated (like the no dancing law the movie Foot Loose was based on), when they directly impede some other government entity's ability to make money, or when the people (with guns) go tell the government what to do.

So again, really, very probably not.

Not OP, but then wouldn't it be in the government's interest to reopen the machine gun registry if for nothing more than more tax revenue?

The trade off is power. The BATFE is 90% dedicated to enforcing the trivial bullshit in the NFA. This is evidenced by high profile raids on gun stores and guitar shops. Their basic job is to reinterpret the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution. This function can be extremely useful to a government in times of turmoil. If you think about it, the government can use the BATFE to reduce the threat to itself if it's ever in dire straights. Calling AR-15s something like "assault weapons" and ilegalizing them, disarms people. Legalizing machine guns has multiple negative effects for the government.

1. It takes legitimacy away because it is going back on previous reinterpretations
2. It better provides the populace with tools to defend against or fight against the government
3. It loses the primary function of the BATFE as well as other smaller entities in federal and municipal branches of law enforcement

They give up too much power in this equation and the money just wouldn't be worth it.

God emperor trump will make your dreams reality.
