ATF ends suppressor and short-barreled rifle registration requirements

The US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has moved to end registration requirements for suppressors and short-barreled rifles, removing a longstanding paperwork obligation for owners of these firearms. The announcement is drawing attention from gun-rights supporters welcoming the deregulation and from critics concerned it will make dangerous weapons easier to obtain with little oversight.

Why now: A major US firearms regulator has rolled back long-standing registration rules, a significant change in gun policy.
