On August4,2025, four national Second Amendment advocacy organizations jointly filed a federal lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the National Firearms Act (NFA). The complaint asserts that key provisionssuch as transfer taxes, registration requirements, and restrictions on suppressors, short-barreled rifles, and shotgunsviolate individual rights under the Second Amendment. Plaintiffs are seeking declaratory and injunctive relief to nullify or significantly alter regulatory burdens imposed by the NFA. Gun rights supporters argue the act has become outdated and overregulates common modern firearms.
