What is Montana's stance on the National Firearms Act (NFA) items such as suppressors and short-barreled rifles?

They are prohibited
They are allowed without restriction
They are allowed with proper registration and tax stamps
They are allowed but must be stored at a gun range

The correct answer is: They are allowed with proper registration and tax stamps

Montana recognizes the legality of National Firearms Act (NFA) items, such as suppressors and short-barreled rifles, provided that they are properly registered and accompanied by the required tax stamps as prescribed by federal law. The NFA establishes a regulatory framework that requires individuals to go through a specific process, including background checks and the payment of a tax, to legally own these items. This means that while Montana allows these items, ownership comes with responsibilities that must be adhered to at the federal level. Understanding this registration and taxation process is crucial for gun owners in compliance with both state and federal laws regarding NFA items.
