Tax Stamp 101: What It Is & Why It Is Going Away

A $200 federal tax historically required for suppressors, SBRs, SBSs, and AOWs. It’s archaic, out-of-date, discriminatory, and luckily coming to an end soon.

Why The NFA Tax Stamp Drops to $0

H.R.1, the “Big Beautiful Bill”, removes the tax but keeps the NFA approval steps. It’s a step in the right direction for shooters who want safer, quieter, easier range days without the $200 penalty. But, just saving $200 isn’t enough. That’s why Silencer Shop and the Silencer Shop Foundation are suing the ATF and the DOJ to repeal the NFA — we actually give a shhhh about our gun rights.

SSF — alongside our industry partners — have taken the fight to the ATF and DOJ to fully remove suppressors, SBRs, SBSs, and AOWs from the NFA. No tax stamp, no forms, no registry, no bull shhhhhh. Just better guns and better shooting, the way it should have been from the beginning.
