My advice - DON'T PANIC!
Highly recommended - if you're getting involved in an ATF investigation, try and work with Peter Gwaltney. He's Good People, knows the difference between a shooter and a producer as well as how to get the more chip-on-my-shoulder-about-Fen types to back off. Helped us at Mishima cut through the bureaucrap when a shipment of ACRs somehow ended up in cartel hands last year.
Also, don't worry about many politicians trying to use you as a target - if there's one good thing the NRA's lawyers are good at, it's raring up at any sign of a politico going after a gun maker/seller/owner. Seriously, in the U.S. gun rights are up there with Social Security and minority rights as a third rail of American politics.
