Paperwork and stamp are still needed, but no extra $200 fee. The cost of a the materials to print supressors (including the printer itself) is pretty close to that $200 price point.
But there’s lawsuits brewing that have a decent shot. The NFA’s authority is based on Article I tax powers, and that setting the fee at $0 effectively removes them from the NFA. The government’s argument is that since the dealers still have to pay taxes, it still applies. That’s a bit of a stretch, but also doesn’t address the question of homemade items at all.

Ah okay. Thank you for the breakdown, appreciate it.
