A sole proprietor SOT may keep any NFA weapon he has after surrendering his SOT, as his personal property, except post-86 machine guns, discussed below. If ATF thinks, based on the number of weapons retained and the timing, that your SOT status was used to evade the transfer taxes, they may demand tax on all or some of the guns, although you will be entitled to a credit against that for your annual $500 or $1000 SOT tax. Conceivably you could also be prosecuted for tax evasion.
