You'd have better luck calling the ATF, they are the ones empowered to enforce
the tax on machine guns.  The local police do not have any authority to
enforce those taxes, and could get sued if they tried to.
Here's an incident where the "local authorities" didn't know what to do about a possibly very worrisome incident at SJC (San Jose International Airport):

The problem is that people don't *think* - they just follow orders, follow their training. No one had thought about or trained for this type of incident. Fortunately, in this case, the people were not terrorists. Meanwhile, TSA confiscates bottles of shampoo and water.
