The National Firearms Act of 1934 didn’t ban machine guns, silencers, or short-barreled shotguns and rifles, but rather placed a then-outrageous $200 tax on them.
Today, after 88 years of inflation, $200 is not that prohibitive of a tax.
The gun-grabbers have learned their lesson not to set a dollar amount but rather a percentage tax on these firearms.
Interesting observation,
