An act relating to the use of gun suppressors while hunting
This bill would remove the expiration date on the current rule that allows hunters in Vermont to use gun suppressors, also known as silencers, during hunting seasons. By repealing the sunset provision, the law would permit individuals to use these devices legally in 2024 and all future hunting seasons without needing additional authorization. The change directly affects hunters who wish to use suppressors to reduce noise and disturbance while pursuing game. No new restrictions are added; the bill simply extends an existing permission that was previously set to expire.
