Removal of suppressors as an NFA regulated item would eliminate the $200 tax stamp, eliminate legality and travel issues between states, reduce hearing safety concerns related to discharging firearms, and would help people be courteous neighbors when discharging firearms.
Contrary to popular belief suppressors are not "silencers".They do not silence firearms like in hollywood movies. They are simply a muffler, similar to those on your car that removes the loud, harsh report of a discharge.
Other areas in the world allow for suppressor use, even as much as encouraging it for both hunting and recreational use. Countries like New Zealand that have tight gun laws even allow for over the counter purchase of suppressors.
