...and the Senate Parliamentarian ruled we can't get rid of taxes on NFA arms in a budget bill ... apparently taxes are off limits in budget bills now...

WTF, she can go fuck herself. How about SCOTUS just shitcans the entire NFA, considering it’s blatantly unconstitutional.

Considering they didn't even take on the assault weapons ban case, I highly doubt the SCOTUS will be dealing any blows to the NFA soon.

Allegedly if the NFA 200$ stamp becomes 0$, the registration can be challenged in court since it's technically a registration for who paid the tax.  Or at least that's the R cop-out justification for not fighting the parliamentarians move; I don't believe it'll work & think they're all liars.

i think we got played (again) by R leadership who included SHORT not for 2A reasons but rather a throw-away COA they could dump as fake "concession" to  show compromise.

My understanding of the process is the parliamentarian goes through and throws stuff out that's policy rather than taxes but the majority leader could add it back in.  My guess is based on the 51-49 vote, there was one or two "Republicans" that didn't want that included, so it wasn't put back in.  Should have put it back in and forced the people to vote.  Easy to remove it and vote again but at least everyone knows where their Senators stand.

No change from current tax under the current Senate version.  But, the House Rules Committee is pushing back against the Senate version, so there's still a chance.

The current senate version removed the $200 tax.  It's now a $0 tax which is hilarious.  All other regulatory and registrations stay as previous.

It's not over yet. 

Senator Clyde introduced an amendment yesterday which would basically end the NFA as it related to silencers and SBRs.

Kinda related, I may be picking up this used (~500 rounds) Ruger PCC Backpacker in 9mm next week when I'm up in the DFW area next week.  I saw one at the Hondo gun show a few months ago and it's been on my mind ever since...

Update:  I decided to hold off on this purchase, had an unexpected expenditure pop up* and didnt think it prudent to purchase another firearm I'd unlikely shoot or need.   Threw a relatively lowball offer at the seller and as expected, he declined.  Not really overly disappointed about it, it just wasn't meant to be I guess...

* - Just to be clear, I can easily afford this Ruger, I just don't think I really need it at the moment...

Found a recent picture of M2 - looks like he can only afford beans for dinner.
