Looking back, it’s hard to believe how far we’ve come over the past 10 years. When we formed, suppressors were legal to own in 39 states. Today, they’re legal in 42. Only 22 states allowed their use while hunting. Now, you can hunt with a suppressor with no restrictions in 40 states. Chief Law Enforcement Officers (CLEO) had veto power over NFA applications in their jurisdictions. Thankfully, their approval is now a thing of the past.
Over the past decade, we have actively lobbied in 30 states, spent countless hours in Washington, D.C., hosted dozens of suppressor demonstrations for legislators, regulators, and the media, and worked directly with ATF to help streamline the transfer process. We helped draft and champion the Hearing Protection Act, have spearheaded public educational initiatives to dispel the myths and misconceptions that surround suppressors, and we have helped defend against tyrannical attempts to ban them. Prior to ASA, there were fewer than 300,000 suppressors in circulation. Today, in part because of our work, there are more than 2,100,000!
Help us celebrate this milestone and make the next decade one to remembers by joining ASA! Already a member? Thank you – you’re automatically entered to win! You can also purchase tickets to win for just $5!
Contest ends Thursday, October 14, 2021, at 11:59pm EST. Winners will be announced Friday, October 15, 2021, at 5:00pm EST
We at ASA are thrilled to represent you in the fight for pro-suppressor reform. Rest assured, we will never stop fighting for your rights!
As the nation’s most trusted experts on suppressor advocacy, ASA will always fight for your suppressor rights! Our campaign promises haven’t changed since 2011 – the year that we formed. Our promises are as follows:
1
ASA will combat any attempt to ban, confiscate, or further regulate suppressors
In 2019 and 2020, ASA successfully fought to protect suppressor ownership in Virginia. We will be back in Richmond in 2021.
At the Federal level, ASA has lobbied against multiple bills that seek to ban, confiscate, or further regulate suppressors. Remember CLEO Signoffs? Our work helped eliminate the CLEO signoff requirement entirely.
2
ASA will fight to remove suppressors from the National Firearms Act
The National Firearms Act is an unjustified tax that never should have existed. Nonetheless, it does. The American Suppressor Association will continue to lead the charge to remove suppressors from the NFA, dismantling the law piece by piece until it no longer remains.
3
ASA will work to
Decrease Wait Times
Transfers should take minutes, not months. ASA will continue to work directly with the White House, Members of Congress, and ATF until wait times are a thing of the past!
4
ASA will Legalize Suppressor Ownership and Hunting in all 50 states
Since our formation in 2011, ASA has helped 3 states legalize suppressor ownership and 18 states legalize suppressor hunting. We will not stop until we are successful in all 50 states!

Before being declared an Official Winner, the potential winner will be required to execute an Affidavit of Eligibility/Liability and Publicity Release and tax acknowledgment (“Affidavit”).

ASA will issue an IRS Form 1099-MISC to Official Winners where applicable.
ASA will attempt to notify each potential winner as set forth above, but ASA is not responsible or liable for inability to contact winners due to undelivered emails, including without limitation emails that are not received because of a potential winner’s privacy or spam filter settings which may divert any Promotion email, including any potential winner notification email, to a spam or junk folder, nor is ASA responsible or liable for incorrect contact information supplied or failure of winner to respond to communications, or ASA’s failure to receive such responses regardless of cause. ASA’s obligation is limited to making good faith efforts to contact potential winners.
No assignment, transfer, conversion to cash or cash redemption or substitution of a prize is permitted, although ASA expressly reserves the right to substitute a prize with an item of comparable or greater value should the prize become unavailable. All prize details are at the sole discretion of ASA.
Entrant acknowledges and agrees that he or she cannot take possession of any firearm prize until he or she has satisfied the applicable government transfer process in-person at a licensed dealer of his or her choice as set forth in these rules. The Entrant further agrees that he or she is solely responsible for his or her compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws. Receipt of some prizes may be PROHIBITED IN CERTAIN JURISDICTIONS and this Promotion is VOID IN THOSE JURISDICTIONS. Firearms and suppressor prizes will be transferred through a federally licensed dealer in accordance with Federal law.
Any transfer fees for firearms, suppressors, or other prizes imposed by the winner’s chosen dealer are the responsibility of the winner.
