That is correct.
Lots of thought that when not taxed anymore they probably cant stay NFA item longterm. Several lawsuits cued up to challenge that already.

If not a NFA item can they be banned? Like bumpstocks...

Banned at the state level in many places.
It's threaded 5/8 - 24. It comes in both 16 and 20 inch. I'm leaning towards 20".

It’s still an Nfa item. The only change is that the “tax stamp” now costs $0, so it’s not really a tax haha. Process is still the same minus $0 fee.

Go for light weight. We hunt almost exclusively with suppressors in Europe. I have a big over-barrel Hausken that is excellent on my .308, but the American QD can I have on a 5.56 AR in Ohio weighs a ton, and is only reasonable for hunting.
I think the US market is about to change fundamentally. I think, and hope, that the QD mounts will become less popular, and prices will come down. In Norway, which is an outrageously expensive country, a suppressor for a .22 LR is about 90 USD. A locally produced .30 cal suppressor for a hunting rifle is under $350 after the national 25% sales tax. And Norway has less than half the population of Ohio.
If I could import foreign suppressors to the US, I'd have a dozen or more. I probably won't buy a suppressor right after the holidays. I'll give it all some time to shake out. But I'm buying cheap-ish guns that are suppressor-ready before they become unattainable. I'm eying a .22 Walther for $180, and a Taurus .22 for $280. I just bought a "Winchester" .22 Wildcat rifle for $130. All 3 come with a threaded barrel.
I think we are on the cusp of a new era in suppressors in America.

If you're interested in buying one and learning the process Silencershop, SilencerCentral and other websites have good explanations of the process. Personal purchases come back pretty quick now, while Trusts are slower. I'd expect a surge in January, but I did see some places were already refunding tax stamp costs for the last few months.
