Its a shame that the Russian government went after them , perhaps they didn't want to share profit[pay off some bureaucrats ] for selling their miniatures for $50k each. Typical Russian style extortion.
Additionally, the video I posted shows them mingling with 'Americans'- and in the current Russian -American chilly climate is perhaps a no-no[ KGB-FSB most definitely got involved]

Pathetic bull****.

I also think that he believed that what he was doing was completely legal. He was not building those live miniatures in secret.
As far as live miniatures in the USA. I have seen a few 1:2 Winchesters chambered in 22 short and Thompsons in shortened 25acp. All live, properly papered and legal. I'm sure there are others.
