I did not remember that. I do remember standing in Bill's Gun Shop buying a Colt HBAR when one of the houses passed it, I think it was the Senate.

Re: NFA Tax Repeal Advances in “One Big Beautiful Bill”

While I agree that it has nothing to do with a budget reconciliation bill I don't agree that repealing the NFA tax on silencers and short has nothing to do with budget reconciliation. It is a tax.

Re: Wal says Minnesota should reconsider allowing guns at State

I think we should reconsider guns at the capital.

We Answer Your Questions About Gutting The NFA



They explain how removing the tax also removes the reporting requirements.

Reconciliation is only for budget bills, so only the tax can be changed without requiring 60 votes in the Senate. GOA seems to believe that zeroing out the tax will automatically reduce the re...
