In what could become one of the most consequential Second Amendment battles in decades, a coalition of gun-rights organizations—including the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF), American Suppressor Association (ASA), National Rifle Association (NRA), and Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC)—has filed a new lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas challenging the constitutionality of the National Firearms Act of 1934 (NFA).
The case, Jensen v. ATF, argues that the NFA’s registration requirements for suppressors, short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, and so-called “Any Other Weapons” can no longer be justified now that the tax originally used to enforce the law has been eliminated under the recently enacted “One Big Beautiful Bill.”
“With the tax now set to $0, the remaining registration requirements for these arms under the NFA have no constitutional basis,” said SAF Executive Director Adam Kraut. “Completely removing them from the NFA is now a must, and this suit aims to eradicate the barriers to the exercise of the Second Amendment.”
