the government often claims that they will not use gun registration records to seize guns. So far they have not.
Not true in California and I think New York state. Threatened in D.C., and I'm no doubt missing more than a few examples.
Needless to say, the majority of US gun owners are opposed to registration (to the point that such a requirement nationwide would light a slow match to a hot civil war; as it is, the post-Sandy Hook registration laws in Connecticut and New York state have been mostly ignored, in these Bluest of states), especially since there are no significant benefits to such schemes. Plenty of us know our 20th Century history as well and the retail and wholesale democide that registration led to abroad.
