Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main legal argument against the National Firearms Act (NFA) following the elimination of its tax?

The primary argument is that the NFA's constitutional basis rested on Congress's power to tax. With the $200 tax on suppressors and SBRs removed, the law's justification collapses, making its registration and enforcement provisions potentially unconstitutional.

How are legal challenges to the NFA being coordinated?

Multiple lawsuits are being filed in different federal districts and circuits across the United States. This multi-court strategy aims to create conflicting rulings (a circuit split), increasing the likelihood of the Supreme Court reviewing and potentially overturning aspects of the NFA.

What specific Second Amendment arguments are being made against the NFA?

Plaintiffs argue that suppressors and short-barreled rifles are 'arms' protected by the Second Amendment and are in common use. The Supreme Court's Bruen decision is cited, emphasizing that regulations must align with historical tradition, and the government has conceded suppressors are protected arms.

What do plaintiffs hope to achieve with these NFA lawsuits?

Plaintiffs seek a court declaration that the NFA's requirements for untaxed firearms exceed Congress's enumerated powers and violate the Second Amendment. They aim for a permanent injunction to stop the enforcement of the NFA's registration and regulation scheme.
