According to the reading of the Hearing for Protection Act you still need to go through a background check to get a silencer/suppressor. I think it's an accessory that you should be able to purchase over the counter without a background check like a magazine or bipod.
If the Hearing Protection Act becomes law and you can easily buy a suppressor without a long background check with the ATF and no $200 tax for some time and people realize that suppressors aren't the deadly killing tool that anti-gunners make it out to be, do you think it will get changed to the point where you don't need a background check to buy a suppressor and that you can just purchase it over the counter like a scope or sling?
