What the subject says... what legal authority could a state have to enforcing a ban on an Federally permitted and NFA stamped suppressor that was legally purchased in the state?
I guess this comes to mind because of recent bump stock rulings and how they are finally coming to admit the ATF didn't have the authority to interpret the rule the way they did yet it didn't stop them from turning people into felons overnight for something they legally purchased.
It somewhat makes me concerned about how a State where suppressors were formerly legal to own could enforce a ban on them, despite the fact that were legally purchased. I know it sounds insane but this is the level of absurdity we face. I have one suppressor on it's way (11 months in) and am considering purchasing another but as we know, they are very expensive and I wouldn't want not have the ability to use them. What's the likelihood?
