Suppressor law
Legal
Civilian possession is legal under state law. No state carve-out is tied to federal registration.
| Statute | No state silencer statute (verified absence, Neb. Rev. Stat. ch. 28 checks; federal NFA/27 CFR 479.82) |
| Notes | Absence-based; a 2018 bill (LB 780) to add restrictions did not become law. |
| Hunting | Allowed - 163 NAC ch. 5 sec. 001 (general hunting regulations) contains no suppressor restriction; big-game guide materials mention none; industry sources confirm suppressors legal for hunting. |
Federal context: suppressor tax $0 since Jan 1, 2026 (OBBBA); ATF stopped enforcing NFA approval/registration Oct 9, 2026. State law is unchanged and independently controls.
