This has been reportedelsewhere, but the ATF has ordered YHM (Yankee Hill Machine) to stop selling Piston (Neilson device) mounts and all other quick attach flash-hider adapters because they are now considered part of the suppressor for their pistol suppressors.
This means that each mount would be taxed and transferred on a form 4.

Sir,
Thank you for your interest in our products. Yes, I can confirm that ATF has made us suspend sales of all individual threaded pistons, fixed barrel adapters, 3 lug mounts, and thread adapters. We are awaiting their ruling on QD mounts right now, but were ordered to halt all sales of them till they make a determination. They say that they are a component of a suppressor and therefore can only be sold with a complete suppressor as part of the suppressor. We are not happy about this to say the least and are in the process of appealing their recent decision. They are supposedly going to be looking at all sound suppressor manufacturers in the very near future. We just happened to be the first. This is all the information I have, and I have no idea how long it is going to take for the appeal process.
Thanks,
Tom Camilleri
