What is the "NFA"?
The National Firearms Act (NFA) regulates certain types of firearms and accessories, such as suppressors, short-barreled rifles (SBR), short-barreled shotguns (SBS), machine guns, destructive devices, and “any other weapons” aka AOWs.
Are NFA items legal to own?
Absolutely, NFA items are legal to own – as long as your state doesn’t specifically prohibit ownership of NFA items.
Can I own an NFA item if I live in Massachusetts?
Unfortunately, you cannot own NFA items as a MA resident.
How long is the approval process?
While it varies on a person to person basis, the average return time on most Form 4 approvals for suppressors and SBRs is within a week once the form is submitted to the ATF.
What is a Tax Stamp and how much is it?
The tax stamp is a federal tax required by the ATF for all NFA items. With the passing of the BBB (Big Beautiful Bill), the $200 Tax Stamp required to buy an NFA item has been reduced to $0 as of January 1st, 2026.
What is the difference between Trust vs Individual?
Individual is just as it implies, you are the sole responsible individual of the NFA item(s) – a Trust allows you to add other responsible individuals to the NFA item(s). Trusts do have additional costs associated with them.
Can you help me with setting up a Trust?
We cannot. We recommend utilizing the appropriate resources available through SilencerShop, or a lawyer that specializes and/or handles NFA Trusts specifically.
