Montana gun owners are seeing a major shift in federal regulations today following new guidance from the ATF.
US Senator Steve Daines announced Tuesday that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives will no longer enforce National Firearms Act registration and approval requirements for untaxed suppressors, short-barreled rifles, and short-barreled shotguns.
In a statement, Daines called the decision, quote, "an historic win for the Second Amendment," end quote, arguing that the original registration scheme was unnecessary and unconstitutional.
The policy shift removes months of paperwork and federal waiting periods for lawful gun owners purchasing those newly untaxed items nationwide.
