PER CURIAM: Thomas James Piper, Jr. was charged with and convicted of possessing in violation of 26 U.S.C. ยงยง 5861(d) and (i), and 5871, a firearm that was not identified by a serial number and that was not registered to him in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record. In this appeal Piper argues that the provisions of the National Firearms Act violate the Self-Incrimination Clause of the Fifth Amendment. Recently this argument was rejected as without merit by the Supreme Court in United States v. Freed et al., 401 U.S. 601, 91 S.Ct. 1112, 28 L.Ed.2d 356 [1971], an opinion that is determinative of the instant matter. Accordingly, the judgment appealed from is affirmed. Affirmed. . See Coleman v. United States, 5th Cir. 1971, 441 F.2d 1132; United States v. Matthews, 5th Cir. 1971, 438 F.2d 715; United States v. Ramsey, 5th Cir. 1970, 429 F.2d 565.
