H.R. 3799 HEARING PROTECTION ACT OF 2015

Recommended Posts

It's such a shame that even if this passed, it wouldn't apply to us.

 

This is one thing I would really love.    I have some hearing loss and tinnitus due to shooting 20+ years ago without hearing protection and this is one thing that would truly be beneficial to all shooters.

I want to leave bad too but the wife........ :(

 

 

I have the same wife problem.  I can move to north-east PA and reduce my commute by 15 miles each way but my wife doesn't want to move.  What a pain.

 

Could you not make the *economic* argument in re: taxes, real estate, etc.?

I would venture to guess that this, unfortunately, will go no where until a pro-gun president is in the White House and the Republicans have 60 votes in the Senate. With the Dems moving further and further left and more anti-gun, I tnk you'd need a filibuster proof Senate to get this passed.

Finally got around to look at this. Interesting section 4 has Preemption.

 

Section 927 of title 18, United States Code, is amended by adding at the end the following: “Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a law of a State or a political subdivision of a State that, as a condition of lawfully making, transferring, using, possessing, or transporting a firearm silencer in or affecting interstate or foreign commerce, imposes a tax on any such conduct, or a marking, recordkeeping or registration requirement with respect to the firearm silencer, shall have no force or effect.”

I'm pretty sure NJ could get around that though. Aren't threaded barrels banned? So we could own silencers but couldn't attach them.

Threaded barrels are legal on handguns that aren't "assault weapons" and bolt action rifles.

Doesn't say anywhere we could own them. It just says if we are allowed to own them NJ couldn't make us pay an extra tax or register them.
