Ending Federal Registration and Taxes on Short-Barreled Rifles and Shotguns.
This law removes short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, and certain other weapons from the strict definition of "firearms" regulated by the National Firearms Act (NFA). This change eliminates the federal requirement for citizens to pay a special tax and register these items with the federal government. Furthermore, the act mandates the destruction of existing federal registration records for these weapons and preempts state or local governments from imposing specific taxes or registration requirements on them.
