Hearing Protection Act

[ray1970]

Is there a precedent for a federal law being no longer applied to an item and then States using existing laws, or creating laws to ban the private, otherwise legal ownership of said items?

If current legal NFA ownership is currently overiding Colorado view of suppressors as dangerous weapons, then wouldn't the Feds view of suppressors as nothing more than the purchase of a handgun, or long gun wouldn't that also preempt Colorado law?

You mean kind of like how federal law doesn't restrict owning a magazine with a capacity greater than 15 rounds but Colorado does?

Aside from the AWB there was never a federal ban on magazine capacity.

Err "restriction on magazine capacity"

But I get your point, makes sense.
