WASHINGTON, D.C. - On Thursday, August 29, the Obama administration announced two new executive actions targeting the firearms industry. One of his actions addresses transfers of National Firearms Act (NFA) firearms to privately held trusts and corporations. Although the proposed rule change has been published by the ATF, the final proposal has not yet been published in the Federal Register.

The American Silencer Association (ASA) is conducting a thorough review of the proposed regulatory reform, which will not be completed until after the final language is published. Until this time, the ASA will withhold comment. We appreciate your understanding, and will issue a statement at the appropriate time.
