The purpose of this legislation is to change how silencers, also known as firearm mufflers, are regulated in the United States. The main goal is to treat silencers the same as other firearm accessories, which would reduce the regulatory burden on individuals who wish to acquire or use them. Key provisions of the legislation include several significant changes to existing laws. First, it amends the Internal Revenue Code to remove silencers from the list of items that are heavily regulated under the National Firearms Act.
