   ATF loosens rules for suppressor repairs and caliber changes

   TFB says ATF is loosening rules on suppressor repairs and caliber changes. Gunsmiths and SOT desks will get questions. Title-only. No ruling number, form, or effective date is named in the pool.

   For a CA shopDo not tell a customer they can now possess, repair, or recore a suppressor in California. Read the primary before you take NFA work. This is not a DROS or roster change.

   Missouri AG sues ATF over NFA registration enforcement

   TTAG says Missouri’s AG is suing ATF over “heavy-handed” NFA registration enforcement. Same ATF/NFA pile as the suppressor-repair item, not a California case. Title-only. No docket or holding is named in the pool.

   For a CA shopDo not tell a customer California NFA or DROS rules just changed. Point NFA questions to counsel and the local ATF field office.
