What it does
The PARTS Act of 2025 would amend the legal definitions of "firearm silencer" and "firearm muffler" in federal law to include not only complete devices designed to reduce a firearm's noise but also the outer tube or primary structural component of such devices, even if sold separately. This change would expand the scope of what is regulated under federal firearms law, potentially subjecting additional parts to the same restrictions as complete silencers. The bill affects manufacturers, sellers, and possessors of firearm sound-reduction components by broadening the definition of regulated items under 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(25).
