Changing the Law on Suppressors
ASA is the unified voice of the suppressor community in Congress, in statehouses, and at ATF. We write bills, testify before lawmakers, comment on federal rules, and defend against attempts to ban suppressors. Since 2011, ASA has lobbied in 35 states and territories, helping legalize suppressor ownership in 3 states and suppressor hunting in 19. We fight on three fronts:
- In Congress, to remove suppressors from the National Firearms Act for good.
- In the states, to legalize suppressor ownership and hunting nationwide, and to remove NFA registration requirements from the state laws that still reference them.
- At ATF, to cut the red tape that still burdens suppressor owners and the industry.
