Say it does get passed, do you think they will require a background check or form similar to a 4473? Instead of the 9 or so month wait and stamp, my guess is that they will still want to regulate them somehow...
It may be outlined in the bill, but I haven't had the time to dig into it.
... So somebody in Congress introduced a bill.
Don't get your hopes up.
Do you realize that for most of the last 30 years, some liberal Democrat member of Congress has introduced a bill that would simply repeal the Second Amendment. Amend the Constitution to just ELIMINATE the Right to Keep and Bear Arms?
It doesn't go anywhere. It just gets "assigned to a Committee" where the committee leaders recognize it for the pie-in-the-sky worthless crap that it is, and they sit on it until it dies.
The same can happen to an NFA reform bill, unless we do a good job of lobbying for it and explaining to politicians how it's not really going to impact public safety at all -- other than to improve public health by reducing the kind of noise that is well known to cause hearing damage.

Have to look back at 1934 records. They were used by gangsters in that era.
I have mixed feelings about it passing. Sure I'd like for it to be $200 cheaper and more importantly much faster but I'm somewhat of an elitist and I like having toys that most people don't.

Don't believe it had anything to do with gangsters. I was to help prevent poaching.
The way it reads is that a suppressor will be treated like a firearm. No Tax Stamp, just the 4473 (or whatever new form they come up with) and the background check. Pass that and you walk out the door with it.Say it does get passed, do you think they will require a background check or form similar to a 4473?
