New Trends in Suppressors — Elimination of NFA Tax Stamp Fee
Thanks to the Trump Administration, the expensive cost of a Tax Stamp for a Silencer/Suppressor has been eliminated. You still have to fill out paperwork, but suppressors are now MUCH more affordable. The $200 NFA tax stamp for suppressors (silencers) and other items like Short-Barreled Rifles (SBRs) was eliminated effective January 1, 2026, meaning the monetary fee is now $0, but the registration process through the ATF (forms, background checks, fingerprints) remains mandatory. The change significantly lowers the cost barrier to owning these items, making them more accessible, but does not remove them from National Firearms Act (NFA) oversight.
The elimination of NFA fees is creating a huge growth in the suppressor markets. At SHOT Show 2026 several suppressor makers have showcased innovative designs and affordable options. This video reviews Dead Air Silencers and the cutting-edge technology behind their most innovative suppressor designs with lightweight titanium construction. Highlighted in this video are the RXD910Ti and RXD22Ti, highlighting their advanced materials, impressive sound suppression, and multi-platform versatility. Also featured is the Nomad Ti OTB, an over-the-barrel design.
Evolution of SIG Sauer’s M7 Military Rifle — Updates
In this video, TFBTV’s James Reeves chats with SIG Sauer about the SIG M7 rifle and what has changed since the M7’s adoption by the U.S. Army. While the M7 has already entered service, SIG explains that the platform is still evolving through the Army’s Product Improvement Effort, driven by real soldier feedback rather than a ground-up redesign. Updates focus on reducing weight, shortening the system with an 11-inch barrel, refining the suppressor, and improving handling without walking back the performance goals of the 6.8×51 cartridge. This conversation breaks down what was changed, why it was changed, and how the M7 continues to mature as the Army\s next-generation service rifle.
New High-BC Sierra MatchKings and New GameKing Bullets
Sierra has released a large selection of new match and hunting projectiles. There are new GameKings, 7 new tipped MatchKings, and two impressive new all-metal MatchKings — .22 Cal 77gr and 6mm 105gr. The new 105-grainer MK caught our attention. Sierra claims that its new 105gr MatchKing is the highest BC 105-grain bullet available, delivering an unmatched blend of speed and high BC. Sierra says the new 105gr SMK (non-tipped) offers the BC performance of heavier bullets while maintaining the velocity advantage of a lighter projectile.
