Suppressors Buying A Suppressor

[roadrash]

I am looking into suppressors right now, and I am thinking of picking up multiple ones for different caliber. Is there any way to basically get a one time tax stamp for multiple suppressors? Or do you have to pay the $200 for each?

Question #1...no
Question #2...yes

Well thats a bummer.

If you buy a suppressor secondhand from a person in the same state, do you still need the stamp?

Yeah it's a bummer, but go ahead and pull the trigger and get the six month wait over with.

The focus here shouldn't be "the stamp," it should be the tax paid transfer. The stamp is an archaic way of proving the tax for the transfer is paid.

If anything like free-market thinking was put to the NFA, the NFA transfer registry or the transfer process, the whole thing would end immediately. That there is a physical stamp that is affixed to a form that must be filled out manually (or by .pdf, yeah, I know), in duplicate, and submitted with other forms so a series of people can handle and touch and play with (to death, I must add), turning the whole process into a circus like Chris Farley described to 'Helen" in Tommy Boy, is pathetic.
A few months back, someone posted a couple of great posters describing the process, and what it could be to speed things along, as well as save the taxpayer money. He should get a medal for that. And we should all contact our elected federal employees and put the spurs to them to fix this mess. But alas, I must return to the real world.
