What is the law regarding the possession of NFA (National Firearms Act) items in Alaska, such as suppressors?

  1. Illegal under all circumstances

  2. Legal with proper registration and compliance with federal law

  3. Legal, but with state registration

  4. Legal, but only for law enforcement

The correct answer is: Legal with proper registration and compliance with federal law

In Alaska, the possession of NFA (National Firearms Act) items such as suppressors is legal with the requirement of proper registration and compliance with federal law. This means that individuals in Alaska can legally own and possess NFA items like suppressors as long as they follow the necessary steps outlined in the federal regulations, which typically include registering the item with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and paying the associated tax. It is important for individuals to be aware of and adhere to the federal laws and regulations governing the possession of NFA items to avoid any legal issues.
