At the very LEAST remove SBRs, SBS's, and suppressors from falling under the NFA; in a perfect world it would be repealed, but we have to choose our battles wisely. I am not a proponent of braces or the ATF! The entire NfA should be struck down as the nonsense it has always been. It hasn't helped to make anyone safer. The whole NFA 1934 is unconstitutional. Since 2006 with the Akins Accelerator, ATF has followed the former approach, interpreting single function of the trigger to mean the shooters single act to initiate a firing sequence (a pull, push or other activation of the trigger). Much ado about nothing. It doesnt stop being reality simply because you dont like it. Will it have to be registered the same as a AR with a Pistol Brace(if the new rule goes into effect in 12/2022)? Likewise, on that same day Trump had a Gallup approval rating of 43%. However here's what I found with a little searching. The ATF knows their move on brace stabilized AR pistols is total BS, but it's ruling I predict will stand as law/ requirement for quite some time before being found unconstitutional, if ever! WebThe term "firearm" shall not include an antique firearm or any device (other than a machinegun or destructive device) which, although designed as a weapon, the Secretary finds by reason of the date of its manufacture, value, design, and other characteristics is primarily a collector's item and is not likely to be used as a weapon. Braces can also be legally purchased as accessories and added to an existing AR pistol by the owner. The ATF initially cleared the device, stating that the submitted brace, when attached to a firearm, does not convert that weapon to be fired from the shoulder and would not alter the classification of a pistol or other firearm.. This form is used by individuals who wish to legally manufacture a firearm that falls under the NFA's definition of a "Title II" weapon, which includes machine guns, short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns, suppressors, destructive devices, I am very worried. Just don't advertise it. If you want to travel with an SBR you do need to fill out a form and get approval but it is valid for 1 entire year. I was reading the ruling and it talks about a 200 Make Fee and a 200 Transfer Fee. I live in CT too. I attended an ATF meeting this morning and got some more clarification on this. Even the word vaccine has a new meaning under these liberal morons. As long as the firearm measures less than 26 inches in overall length and features a barrel length of 16 inches or less AND does not come with a buttstock or vertical foregrip, it falls into the AR pistol realm. No buffer tube or point for stock attachment, it's a pistol. Excellent article! Business premises. There is no de-escalation here. So I can't register it even if I wanted too. 
I wonderIs that good on Supressors too? Good article, I've owned AR pistols since 2015 and have followed the many ATF letters shared and debated on arfcom. Its like a car, a Geo Prism will kill a pedestrian at 50 mph., but so will a Vette. But lets call them what they are, SBRs. Nah, the NFA is unconstitutional. I am absolutely astounded. As an avid gun owner with what will be seen as an awful point of view on this website, I am prepared to be ridiculed. Or, maybe an authoritarian socialist government. Essentially if you have a firearm with a barrel less than 16 inches and a brace on that firearm, you have an SBR by the ATFs accounts. Hopefully now that the House is republican run, we can put some common sense back into the ATF. A: Firearms that are braced and meet the ATF regulations as an SBR cannot be transferred to a gunsmith for work until the firearm is brought into compliance through removal of the brace or approved registration with the ATF. That's a lie you've been told truth is it exceptionally legal to build from the safety of your home for personal use without such sorry to bust your bubble. A very functional version of the tailhook brace can be made in a few minutes from a short piece of 6"pvc pipe, a heat gun, and a nut and bolt. Even if they dont keep the reconds on file in government somewhere, they can get them anytime they want. Great explanation of how this grace period by the ATF is entrapment. joe can store supposed intel in cardboard boxs next to an old car ! What ever happen to our Constitution, and the first 10 amendment's called our Bill of Rights, and the True Rule of Law, with not no politics, or getting out of jail cards, no changing the true rules, from pressure that causes a love of Power, and a love of Money, and a Greed, which brings us to a two (2) tier justice system, that becomes corrupt, and those who truly knows what it means to a Empire, a Country, or a Kingdom, and the oath many have taken before entering one of our armed services, or agencies.

I don't want the ATF knowing what guns I own. The rest is just people wanting to split hairs to get what they want, and as stupid as arguing you dont want to get a permit to own a machine gun. They were added to prevent a backdoor loophole for hand guns because originally it was handguns that were going to go on the NFA but when it got decided that hand guns would not go on the NFA they never took SBR"s off and here we are all these years later with SBR's on the NFA for no reason. Q: If I register, how long do I have, do I have to pay the $200 tax, and does the gun need to be marked? Legal? I wonder how they will react. It would be more accurate. A bit confused here. What about the ability to carry them? Require the ATF to furnish statistics on just how many crimes have been committed with braced pistols . It takes 9 months to get 1 through the ATF. There are already several MILLION braced firearms in the U.S., the higher we make that figure the harder it will be for them to restrict ownership. The politics around that wouldnt fly for even a second. Thanks for a great article. If that's your goal, well, I'm not playing. Just real easy to bumble into SBR territory if you don't really, carefully, research the law. remade, and intended to be fired from the shoulder and designed. Brace - no brace, does it really matter. Now if your forearm strap is attached to the At recoil tube without the original shoulder stock being in place then there is really no way to shoulder the At recoil tube then considered a At postal come on guys this is not brain surgery here its simple stuff everyone get your heads out of your butts ok you can not attach a brace to the at recoil tube slide stock and think its ok its not if able to shoulder the unit it is a SBR period ok. My god people come on! Every state should become a sanctuary firearm state and tell the atf to mind their business. The damn cat needs to be put put back in the box.

I agree that should be one of our first steps we should collectively take. After a waiting period, the gun owner eventually receives a tax stamp. Thanks in advance for clarification. In June 2021, the ATF struck again. Instead of glorifying and going soft on criminals.
