Frequently Asked Questions

What is S.Amdt.2973 and what does it propose?

S.Amdt.2973 is an amendment proposed to H.R.3944 by Senator Christopher Murphy. It aims to significantly increase taxes on firearms regulated under the National Firearms Act (NFA), raising the transfer tax to $4,789 and the making tax to $4,789 or $55, depending on the item.

Why is removing the NFA tax stamp fee considered a potential mistake?

Removing only the tax stamp fee, while leaving other NFA regulations like background checks and registration intact, leaves the system vulnerable. This partial deregulation can pave the way for future legislative attempts to drastically increase taxes or reimpose stricter controls, as seen with S.Amdt.2973.

What are the proposed new NFA tax rates?

The proposed rates under S.Amdt.2973 are a $4,789 transfer tax (up from $200) and a making tax of $4,789 for certain items (up from $200) or $55 for other items (up from $5).
