this is just semantics...
Suppressors are not firearms... they may be classified and codified as such simply for regulation and taxation purposes as a result of the NFA, but if the shtf... they would not and will not be protected by the 2nd Amendment...
the same goes for DIAS's and Lightning Links... they my be considered machine guns by themselves... but that is a result of the NFA... and since machine guns are regulated... those devices are used to create an automatic weapon... thus... they are regulated as if they were one... but in the main scheme of things they are not a firearm and will never be protected by the 2nd...
if the NFA was abolished, and they were no longer codified as a "firearm" the government could outlaw them as easily as they wanted to...without a 2nd Amendment arguement
