Hearing Protection Act Folded Into
Hunting, Fishing Rights Bill

By Tom Knighton. September 11th, 2017

Many gun owners are excited by the Hearing Protection Act bill. The anticipation of being able to spend a day at the range without hearing protection just sounds like a joy, especially if you don't have to jump through NFA hoops in order to make it happen.

Now, the measure has been folded into another bill called Sportsmen Heritage and Recreational Enhancement or SHARE Act.

The bipartisan measure, the Sportsmen Heritage and Recreational Enhancement or SHARE Act, blends popular initiatives to safeguard and expand hunting and fishing rights and practices across public land with one to drop suppressors from National Firearms Act regulation. South Carolina Republican U.S. Rep. Jeff Duncan, the sponsor of the bill, has been working with Democrats within the Congressional Sportsmen's Caucus to try and garner support from across the aisle.

"It concerns me enough that we've talked to them about it," Duncan said. "At the end of the day, I hope they will embrace it." ......

This is another piece of legislation that needs to be moved on and moved on quickly. .......

Time rolls on and still we have not seen suppressors deregulated. However, it appears there just may at last be a light at the end of the tunnel if this new bill can get through and include the suppressor relaxation. It is long overdue, as over and over it has been regarded as nothing more than a dangerous "Hollywood crime device".
