ATF Drops Registration Rules for Short-Barrel Rifles and Silencers
Original: ATF Drops Registration Rules for Short-Barrel Rifles, Silencers After Court Ruling
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has stopped enforcing registration requirements for short-barrel rifles and silencers following a federal court ruling. The change means buyers of those firearms accessories may no longer need to pay the tax or register with the agency. Gun rights advocates are celebrating the move as a win against federal firearms restrictions, while critics warn it could make dangerous weapons harder to trace.
Why now: A court ruling forcing the ATF to drop long-standing registration rules is a major shift in US gun regulation.
