Friend,

Things can definitely get lost over the weekend, especially on Independence Day. 

So we wanted to be sure that you saw this critical joint update we released on Thursday with the National Rifle Association, American Suppressor Association, and the Second Amendment Foundation on the fight against the NFA below: 

WASHINGTON, D.C. (July 3, 2025) –When President Trump signs the One Big Beautiful Bill — which will eliminate the excise tax on suppressors, short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, and AOWs— he will have delivered the biggest blow to the National Firearms Act since its passage nearly a century ago. We thank President Trump for his leadership and every member of Congress who fought for law-abiding gun owners throughout the reconciliation process.

By eliminating the excise tax on these NFA items, the OBBB will not only lift the heavy burden of an unconstitutional tax from the backs of hard-working Americans, it will also serve as a critical step towards our ultimate goal of dismantling the NFA once and for all. But there is much work yet to be done.

While we will continue to fight for the total legislative elimination of the NFA, our organizations are proud to stand together in a new strategic lawsuit to challenge the constitutionality of the NFA in Federal Court.

For freedom and liberty,

– The FPC Team
