Lucky you did not buy a surplus abrams tank and tell them you intended to put it to work.
I purchased some equipment that is barred from export from north america and also got a visit. Just because it can process uranium. Fortunatly it is also used in many other applications as well.
Customs must have noticed it being imported by me. I wanted to ask the guy to leave so I could resume processing uranium. He might have had no sense of humour so I passed on the ideal.
I really believe they only wanted assurances that the equipment was both in my posession and I had no intent of attempting export to the middle east at that time. I wonder what they got out of my background check before arriving.
