“So, concerning suppressor transfers, is there now any requirement for identification for purchase? Could one just pay cash legally?”
I was listening to the Vince show (Thursday or Friday of last week) and Vince had the President of Gun Owners of America on to discuss the 2nd A win.
Takeaways:
1) The ruling ONLY applies to members of the class that sued (GOoA and another participant in the lawsuit).
2) You HAVE to be in a state that does NOT have a law restricting suppressor ownership)
In essence, IF I was a member of GOoA I could (living here in Montana) purchase a slicer for cash after passing a ‘background’ check. As I currently am not a member of GOoA I need to do paperwork and pay the $200.00.
I pretty much believe that was the ‘just’ of the discussion.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As of the beginning of the year you no longer have to pay the $200 tax, no matter what state you live in.

Just the paperwork part IIRC, the tax was eliminated by the administration and it being there gave it the flavor of “congressional approval” as a regulatory device.
As I don’t have any problem acquiring a slicer in CA (Easily picked up at say, Williams Sonoma), I’d only consider a suppressor in NV possibly, as a disposable 😉
