Silencers Legal Again After 92 Years | Wilmington News

A federal judge has just overturned nearly 90 years of gun silencer regulations, declaring them unconstitutional after Congress eliminated the tax that once justified the registration process. For the first time since 1934, buyers can legally acquire silencers without federal approval — two Texans walked out with them just after midnight Thursday. Gun rights groups hailed it as the biggest Second Amendment win in history, and the administration won’t appeal. But the ruling is limited to the plaintiffs; broader changes still require congressional action. The era of mandatory federal silencer registration is officially over — at least for now.
