This is the first time the price has changed from $200 in almost a century...

If it had been adjusted for inflation a stamp would be 3k today.

What's likely to happen is now that it's $0 they call into the legality of the registry. Before the rational was that it was necessary to track who paid, because tracking the ownership wasn't legal.

If they're not completely removed, there's nothing stopping it from being changed again later.

I don't see a reason for suppressors to be more regulated than guns, and with "pistol" loopholes SBR regulation doesn't make much sense either.

We need to completely redo our gun laws from the ground up. None of the current system makes sense, but that doesn't mean we get rid of it, just replace it with something that actual works.

Well, I'll certainly take the win here.

It's a bone that either party could have thrown gun owners for a long time now. It amazes me it has taken this long.

This isn't a win

They need to eliminate the registry. It moots the "Brace Rule" debate nonsense and so many other things that are wastes of resources.

Support GOA in their lawsuit to dismantle the NFA.

I haven't been able to watch the video yet. Are they still considered NFA items? Not happy about this bill overall but I can't argue with this change being a good thing and a long time coming.

Yeah, they are still on the NFA. So all other rules around them apply, such as the application process with the ATF, fingerprinting, etc.

The other commenter mentioned above that this does open legal challenges against this portion of the NFA, however. As gun registries are illegal and if this is no longer a receipt of tax payments...
