Frequently Asked Questions

What is the current status of the Hearing Protection Act and Short Act?

The Hearing Protection Act and Short Act, aiming to reduce the NFA tax on suppressors and SBRs to zero, have passed in the Senate. They are now heading back to the House for further consideration, with efforts to reintroduce their full versions into pending legislation.

What is the main goal of the Short Act and Hearing Protection Act?
