PARTS Act of 2024
This bill clarifies the federal legal definition of "firearm silencer" and "firearm muffler" under Title 18, U.S. Code. It specifically defines these terms to include: (1) devices designed to silence firearms and attach to them, and (2) the outer housing components that contain sound-reduction parts. The bill does not create new restrictions or requirements; it only refines existing terminology for regulatory clarity. This definition affects all manufacturers, sellers, and users of silencers/mufflers under federal law.
