Understanding the National Firearms Act of 1934 (http://www.countryboyartillery.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=60:understanding-nfa34&catid=44:articles-general&Itemid=65) Written by Frank Maschhoff Thursday, 27 March 2008 17:47 If only I had a dollar for every time I’ve been asked if my suppressors, machineguns, or short-barrel shotguns were legal, I wouldn’t have to work in order to afford more of them. The fact is, in most of the United States, those weapons are 100% legal for civilians to own, as long as they are properly registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (BATFE), and the proper taxes are paid for their transfer. In this article, we’ll take a look at the National Firearms Act of 1934 (NFA34, or just NFA) and the process necessary to own these weapons.
