Well actually its considered a Firearm. They do this so they can run a 4473. So…it shouldn’t be regulated.
But Im just not sure now is a good time given the douchebags at work on the AWB. However, I will sign it so it shows a large number of interested people.
Thank you, sir!
negotiations usually end in compromise, maybe it wouldn’t be bad to ask for more so we don’t end up with getting less?
this is just semantics…
Suppressors are not firearms… they may be classified and codified as such simply for regulation and taxation purposes as a result of the NFA, but if the shtf… they would not and will not be protected by the 2nd Amendment…
the same goes for DIAS’s and Lightning Links… they my be considered machine guns by themselves… but that is a result of the NFA… and since machine guns are regulated… those devices are used to create an automatic weapon… thus… they are regulated as if they were one… but in the main scheme of things they are not a firearm and will never be protected by the 2nd…
if the NFA was abolished, and they were no longer codified as a “firearm” the government could outlaw them as easily as they wanted to…without a 2nd Amendment arguement
I would be surprised to see an attempt to control hicap mags and semiautos thru new NFA laws, just saying. Would you pay tax stamp on each semi auto or hicap mag? since 1934 , havent heard of full auto mass murders. just saying…
You might have had a better chance by re-classifying them as AOW for $5. That would give them a registry for whatever reason they mistakenly feel they need and make ownership affordable and more reflective of the actual item being taxed.
