Plain-English Summary

The proposal would establish federal regulations for firearm silencers and mufflers, which are devices that reduce the noise produced by guns. Gun owners, manufacturers, and dealers would need to comply with new rules governing how these devices are made, sold, and used. The regulations would affect anyone who owns, manufactures, or sells firearms and sound-suppression equipment.
