Nebraska State NFA Rules and Allowable NFA Items

Nebraska is a state that is very respectful of NFA owners’ rights. They have very clear language in their law that ensures that machine guns, short-barreled rifles and short-barreled shotguns that are properly registered with the federal government shall be legal in the state of Nebraska. They do not have an express law pertaining to the possession of suppressors. They also allow hunting with a suppressor in Nebraska.

Nebraska Revised Statutes28-1203. Transportation or possession of machine guns, short rifles, or short shotguns; penalty; exception.

Any person or persons who shall transport or possess any machine gun, short rifle, or short shotgun commits a Class IV felony. The provisions of this section shall not be held to prohibit any act by peace officers, members of the United States armed services, or members of the National Guard of this state, in the lawful discharge of their duties, or persons qualified under the provisions of federal law relating to the short rifle, short shotgun, or machine gun.
