A lot of what I do here at Bearing Arms is write about things that annoy me. Every gun control bill that flows down the pipe annoys me to no end. Even the victories, such as they are, aren't that great in my mind, at least in most cases. I mean, I was thrilled when Georgia passed constitutional carry, but it only had a secondary impact on me, personally.
Today, though, I get to take a step toward actual celebration, because the biggest Second Amendment legislative victory in my lifetime is one step closer to happening.
That's right, boys and girls, suppressor delisting is back in the budget that was approved by the House on a 215-214 vote earlier today.
🚨BREAKING🚨
The manager's amendment to the One Big Beautiful Bill includes the Hearing Protection Act—fully removing suppressors from the National Firearms Act of 1934.
As a backup under the Byrd Rule, the transfer & making tax is also reduced from $200 to $0. pic.twitter.com/yVQAqjpvyA

What does this mean about State restrictions on the sale of suppressors?
You can buy suppressors in a hardware store in Europe but here in the United States the socialists rule by diktat and decided to target suppressors almost a century ago.
IMO (IANAL): Nothing. Take it up with your State legislature.
Waste of time (I'm in California).
What does this mean about State restrictions on the sale of suppressors?
It means get a big roll of cash and drive to a neighboring free state.
Does California restrict/ban suppressors independently of the NFA?
My first impression was that this would not fly in the Senate. I’d love to be wrong.
State Restrictions on suppressors will stand if the bill passes.
However, many state restrictions on suppressors depend on the current NFA, or state the suppressors in the state must abide by Federal law. The HSA meets the requirements of the Federal Law by keeping suppressors under the requirements of GCA 1968, the same as ordinary rifles and shotguns.
Some states simply ban suppressors, which appears to be the case in California. I expect lawsuits citing the Second Amendment in those states.
Both waitresses and hitmen have reason to celebrate this bill
Another stupid anti 2nd amendment gun law defined by movies.

Yes. You can't even have a threaded barrel on most pistols or semi-auto rifles without the device attached to those threads being pinned and welded.
California is Very restrictive on suppressors perhaps Outlawed altogether.

Would Arizona openly allow them if removed
From Fed Law?
California is ruled over by lunatics ...
This means that we can also roll our own if we have the knowledge and means.
Local,State And Federal...?

We May well find Out !
Suddenly those cheap "solvent trap" kits that were sold at gun shows become legal again. It's not like suppressors are really hard to make, so competition should bring prices down considerably. Even better, you will be able to buy an integrally suppressed rifle, with the suppressor designed into the barrel.
Now lets get rid of the silly restrictions on short barreled rifles...
