Gay.....seems to me they shouldn't just be able to check your tax stamp at will if there is no crime being committed

They were just making their presence known. They saw an item that caught their eye and followed up on it.
The nice part of this scenario is the OP had the correct paperwork and left them nowhere to go.
Slammed the door.

They are always at gunshows for just such reasons..

Just possessing an NFA item is a crime, only defensible by also possessing a tax stamp. Exactly the same as carrying concealed.

If you get, or already have NFA items, and feel like playing with fire and busting balls, then you would deny anyone seeing your stamps but an actual ATF agent.

Exactly. Those agents don't like "compliance" cases, which means dont give them a reason. Be polite, provide your docs, don't provoke and life will be fine. ANYONE who would respond otherwise is foolish.

Will this take the place of your annual, random, unannounced, anytime day-or-night inspection at your home?
