DeWine\">Dead Air Nomad Ti OTB Review: Only 4.6 Inches Added<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SB 214 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.legislature.ohio.gov\/download?key=28932\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hio-sb-214-suppressor-sbr-sbs-dewine\" title=\"Ohio Sends Suppressor, SBR and SBS Reform to Gov. DeWine\">removes<\/a> those firearms and suppressors from that category, allowing Ohioans to acquire, possess, carry and use them without relying on the state\u2019s current dangerous-ordnance exemptions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The change does not turn a suppressor, SBR or SBS into an unregulated piece of hardware. Purchases from federally licensed dealers would still require an ATF Form 4473 and background check, just like other firearms. Prohibited persons would remain prohibited from buying or possessing them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, the bill stops Ohio from treating a short rifle or hearing-protection device like a stick of dynamite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-asa-backs-the-bill\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">ASA Backs the Bill<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/americansuppressorassociation.com\/legislation\/state-legislation\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hio-sb-214-suppressor-sbr-sbs-dewine\" title=\"Ohio Sends Suppressor, SBR and SBS Reform to Gov. DeWine\">American Suppressor Association<\/a> supports SB 214 and lists it as having passed both chambers before being sent to DeWine on Nov. 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ASA Executive Director Knox Williams also testified in favor of the measure before the House Public Safety Committee in June. The group argued that Ohio needed to separate its suppressor law from the federal National Firearms Act registration system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That became increasingly important after federal changes eliminated the $200 transfer tax and ATF announced it would no longer enforce the previous approval and registration requirements. Without an Ohio fix, suppressor owners could have faced problems because state law tied lawful possession to a federal registration process that was no longer being enforced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ASA says suppressors generally reduce a firearm\u2019s sound signature by approximately 20 to 35 decibels. They do not make gunshots silent, but they can reduce shooters\u2019 exposure to permanent hearing damage. The organization also notes that more than five million suppressors are in circulation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buckeyefirearms.org\/sites\/buckeyefirearms.org\/files\/field\/image\/Suppressors-OH-2026-0302.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hio-sb-214-suppressor-sbr-sbs-dewine\" title=\"Ohio Sends Suppressor, SBR and SBS Reform to Gov. DeWine\">nationwide<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-house-amendments-spark-opposition\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">House Amendments Spark Opposition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The original Senate version focused only on suppressors and passed 31-1 in March. The House later expanded the bill to include short-barreled rifles and shotguns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That addition cost the bill some Democratic support. Sen. Bill DeMora said he supported the suppressor provisions but believed the House amendments \u201cwent too far.\u201d The amended version ultimately <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wosu.org\/2026-11-11\/bill-removing-certain-weapons-from-ohios-dangerous-ordnance-list-sent-to-dewine\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hio-sb-214-suppressor-sbr-sbs-dewine\" title=\"Ohio Sends Suppressor, SBR and SBS Reform to Gov. DeWine\">cleared<\/a> the Senate on a 21-9 vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Supporters countered that SBRs and SBSs are still firearms, not grenades, explosives or rocket launchers\u2014and should be regulated accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The final decision now belongs to DeWine. If he signs SB 214, Ohio will join the growing list of states updating their laws to reflect the rapidly changing federal landscape surrounding suppressors and short-barreled firearms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:24px\"><strong><em>*** <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"hio-sb-214-suppressor-sbr-sbs-dewine\" title=\"Ohio Sends Suppressor, SBR and SBS Reform to Gov.
