That is NOT accurate.

So during the Clinton AW Ban, my father was still party to an ongoing divorce. One day the Sheriff's Office showed up to inventory property as directed by a judge, in the course of cataloging the contents of the safe they looked at a bunch of black rifles and thinking "aren't these illegal?" took temporary possession of them until the local ATF guy could check them out and verify they were good.

The rifles eventually passed inspection, although the local PD did monkey around with the cool new "night vision" and pretty much f'ed it over not knowing that light can damage it. But if the ATF guy found something that was in AW configuration that was clearly post 94 production that would have been that.

So in all kinds of scenarios, local law enforcement does enforce federal laws.
