Gun rights advocates file lawsuit to challenge national firearms act

11. Oktober 2025 Von KI berichtet

Pro-gun organizations have launched a lawsuit against the federal government, arguing that the 1934 National Firearms Act's regulations on silencers and short-barreled firearms are unconstitutional following a recent legislative change. The suit, dubbed the 'Big Beautiful Lawsuit,' seeks to eliminate longstanding restrictions and the associated federal registry. It comes after Congress passed the Big Beautiful Bill, which removes a $200 tax on these items starting in 2026.
