    How could we get suppressors off of the NFA?

    How could we word a bill?

    I am thinking the "The Noise Pollution Reduction Act" or Hearing Protection Act of 20fill in the blank"

If an integrally suppressed pistol becomes mainstream in law enforcement, I could see the day suppressors get removed legislatively (and maybe SBRs; fingers crossed there).

    Easy, Just put OHSA in charge.

    They'll make suppressor use mandatory with a 10 year prison sentence for each cartridge discharged without a suppressor.

    One would be that they are mainstream, really mainstream. You need to get rid of the Hollywood "assassin's tool" stigma.
    You'd have to get current owners to not demand their $200 back per suppressor.
    Your method of attack? Suppressors are listed as a "firearm". In nfa, "firearm" is defined. Suppressors do not fit the qualification, they never have.

    All that said, I wouldn't hold my breath.

    They are not going to want to give up the "free" $200 per unit they are getting now. When you look at how popular suppressors have become, it's easy to see this is a lot of money.

    A guy can dream of a no ATF America, like the one our founding fathers intended.

    More over think about the savings cost in the way of hearing damage the unions have to shell out.
