eliminate legality and travel issues between states
My uncle hunts and would would like to use a suppressor, which is illegal in IL, but not in KY. The result is he bow hunts so as to not scare off the other animals as much.
It's a good example of how most gun control is crafted by idiots. They should be not just legal, but encouraged, perhaps even mandated just like mufflers on cars. But for many in DC, Hollywood is their primary source of information/education when it comes to guns.

That and it was the the 1930`s, I mean do you want those elected officials who thought Mars was invading during the "War of the Worlds" broadcast to be creating laws about devices they know nothing about?
The National Firearms Act of 1934 was passed as a 'make work' law for federal enforcement agents who had nothing to do after prohibition was repealed in 1933. As with most make-work vehicles, rationality flies out the window. How many BATF agents does it take to unscrew a suppressor? Answer currently is 4770.

Thank you FDR, I hope you are burning in hell..

How can rationality fly out the window when it did not exist to begin with..

Up close and personal with a bow, is real hunting. If you can get close enough to harvest an animal with a bow, you did something.
The issue is even traveling between states. I don't know the specifics about traveling with a suppressor but you can end up in jail for having certain types of ammunition in some states getting from point A to point B if that state is along your route of travel.
They can't stop you from traveling through a state with a weapon as long as it's properly secured but even that has hazards. There was a guy traveling from Utah to PA with a stop in NJ. He checked his gun in Utah. The plane was late getting to NJ and they offered him a bus, his bags never got on the buse so he got off and collected his bags. He spent the night at a hotel and the next day when he went to check his gun they arrested him. I think he spent 2 weeks in jail but they eventually dropped the charges. It took him like 2 or 3 years to get his gun back.
This menagerie of laws needs to be addressed.
