    Default Removal of Silencers from NFA?

    If this happens, is it good news for those of us stuck in the Californicated Colorado?

    If they are no longer "permitted" by purchase of a tax stamp, would future purchases be allowed in Colorado?

    I wonder if this was a loophole some Blue state Republicans wanted to keep, even with $0.00 stamp, so that the federal "permit" to own superseded any state prohibitions?

    Also included in H.R. 1 is something called the SHORT Act. Among other things, the SHORT Act had a restriction within it preventing states and cities (counties too I suppose) from enacting firearms restrictions on things allowed by the federal government.

    Well, that would also invalidate the trigger activators (FRT, Binart, Bump Stocks), provision of the 2025 AWB.

    They are legal in Colorado and remain legal after the latest round of laws passed. CRS 18-12-102 covers it.

    I just saw this, it had slipped by.

    Does that mean if we have unused cans we may be able to sell them private party like firearms pre 2012. It looks like it removes them as firearms which should remove BGCs.

    If that’s the case I’ll have about 10 to sell.

    1. The nfa amendment will never get out of the Senate.

    2. Colorado will ban them as fast as they can if it some how makes it through.

    The amendment is stupid.

    Without federal teeth backing it all it does is effectively ban suppressors in states where NFA is affirmative defense. Which is… the majority of states is it not? Aside from the few which outright ban ownership, tax stamp or not?

    Pretty much how it stands in reality.

    Everything at the national level screws at the local level. Until, now it seems if ever if, SCOTUS actually defends the 2A from these commies, all these ‘wins’ are nothing more than red capes for bulls to gore us of more rights. The cities will be the first to act- and we’ll be lucky to keep what we have NFA registered, since Denver never grandfathers anything.
