NFA registry

The NFA Registry, or National Firearms Act Registry, is a database in the United States that tracks certain types of firearms and devices regulated under the National Firearms Act of 1934. This includes items like machine guns, silencers, and short-barreled rifles. Individuals or entities must register these items and pay a tax to legally own them. The registry helps law enforcement monitor ownership and ensure compliance with federal regulations, promoting accountability and safety in the handling of these specialized weapons.
