The 1986 Machinegun ban, the 1968 GCA and the 1934 NFA are all unconstitutional.
Suck it, Beto.
I really hope this does prevail. I should be able to walk into my LGS and walk out in 10 minutes with a suppressor I paid <$50 for instead of filling out a ream of paperwork, pay an extra $200, and wait a year or two..

Sadly, the Fed’s have turned a process that is absolutely no different than buying a gun, with a NICS check, and turns it into a mess. All because of something that happened where? Chicago.
Proving that no matter this far you go back, the Fed’s are morons.
Great video that delves into the insane process.

On one hand the ATF is trying to get through the 650,000 backlog of silencer tax stamps by working 24/7, but on the other hand the law requires more than a tax stamp. It requires the FBI, the criminal organization, to approve each one and they FBI is dragging their feet. It takes about 10 months to get the tax stamp approved.
The ATF introduced the eForms this last December but that hasn’t seem to help since the paper forms from early last year are still being processed. eForm applications are supposed to be done in under 90 days.
I filed an eForm months ago that probably won’t get processed for several more months.
P.S. The ATF is processing about 500 silencer approves every day. They were up to 1,000 per day until the FBI started dragging their feet.
FReepmail me if you want to be added to or deleted from the list.
