Suppressor purchase now or wait?

You can't keep up with this... Last I saw Rep Clyde added an amendment to remove Silencers, SBR's, and SBS's from the NFA. It has probably changed since 59 seconds ago though.

In regards to demand, I had a guy call me several days ago that thought they were already removed from the NFA, and at that time I thought the issue was dead. He said well if they were removed he wanted one for everyone of his guns, now he maybe wants one for a pistol... Do with that information what you want.

Waiting could save you time and money if the bill really goes through. But sometimes things take longer than expected in Congress, so if you really want one now, it might be worth getting it before any surprises

Did it get thru or get gutted?

Here's the actual language as it stands now. They could still add the HPA back into the bill but it would have to go back to the senate. We all know that won't happen because you know...tiny balls.


SEC. 70436. REDUCTION OF TRANSFER AND MANUFACTURING TAXES FOR CERTAIN
DEVICES.

(a) Transfer Tax.--Section 5811(a) is amended to read as follows:
``(a) Rate.--There shall be levied, collected, and paid on firearms
transferred a tax at the rate of--
``(1) $200 for each firearm transferred in the case of a
machinegun or a destructive device, and
``(2) $0 for any firearm transferred which is not described
in paragraph (1).''.
(b) Making Tax.--Section 5821(a) is amended to read as follows:
``(a) Rate.--There shall be levied, collected, and paid upon the
making of a firearm a tax at the rate of--
``(1) $200 for each firearm made in the case of a
machinegun or a destructive device, and
``(2) $0 for any firearm made which is not described in
paragraph (1).''.
(c) Conforming Amendment.--Section 4182(a) is amended by adding at
the end the following: ``For purposes of the preceding sentence, any
firearm described in section 5811(a)(2) shall be deemed to be a firearm
on which the tax provided by section 5811 has been paid.''
(d) Effective Date.--The amendments made by this section shall
apply to calendar quarters beginning more than 90 days after the date

Yep perfectly clear

 

[poopdaddy]

what i heard is removing the 200 tax is still in... it will still be nfa but not charge for it... its tax vs policy.. they say removing the is policy and does not meet the reconciliation part of the bill... but removing the tax does.. that said, you take the money out of it, it may be easier in the future to get them removed. no money in it for them...just work..

 

[GarandDawg]

So basically what the Senate passed. MGs - nothing has changed. For suppressors, SBRs, etc., $0 tax but still in the NFA requiring Form 1 or Form 4.

 

[CBH13]

And then the no $200 tax provision got added back. Who isn’t paying attention??

Actually I think that's already been gone again and the nfa part was added in. This is the most back and forth government ****,

 

[Wiskey_33]

Lame, but a step in the right direction.

Still sticking to what my OP on here was, which was to put it on layaway (which you ironically gave me the idea for either on this thread or a different one you posted on). I have my suppressor still on layaway 5 days later as I await to find out what happens. I wanted to get two of them, but meh. My other suppressor can go on my 6.5 CM or my AR-15/Carmel rifles, so it's all good.
