Today, Governor Maggie Hassan signed House Bill 500 into law. House Bill 500, sponsored by Representative John Burt (R-39), would repeal the current ban on the use of legal firearm sound suppressors while hunting. Sound suppressors attached to firearms are an additional tool available to help protect the shooter’s hearing, reduce noise complaints from surrounding residents, as well as increase accuracy and safety.
Thank you to everyone who reached out to their state legislators and the Governor in support of this important legislation.
