Pistol Brace Reversal?


Recommended Posts

If you aren't the type of person to really keep up with the current law on a daily basis, you could very easily be either within the law or breaking it depending on what day of the week it is. It's getting a bit ridiculous.

 

Just be easier to legalize SBRs and be done with it. That's all they really are anyways.

Yeah, saw that referenced on arfcom, a bit difficult to pick apart in with all the wiggle wording but does get rather specific about needing a "modifying" of the brace itself to count as part of "modifying" it to fire from the shoulder, and does say that shoulder firing alone is not the criterion, which is 180 from Mad Max's Open Letter.

Sounds to me like at least a partial reversal if for no other reason to justify why there's been no enforcement of the dictates of the previous missive.

Isn't it still all about intent? If they weren't going to enforce this ruling before then why even keep SBRs on the registry? I want to see Cheeto Jesus and Congress get SBRs and silencers off of the NFA. I wonder what is next to come from F Troop. Maybe rubber bands will no longer be considered machine guns.

Is this ruling only for the SB Tactical braces or will it also cover the Shockwave?

Like all ATF "Letters," it only applies to the person that it is written to, and only for what is discussed in the letter.

While your statement is true, this one does sort of applies to all braces in so far as their interpretation of  "use" and "makes" and "redesign".  The shockwave, and most braces have their own ATF letter authorizing them as a brace, or at least as a non-stock. The original open letter never mentioned the Sig brace, although it described it so if it stood, I bet any brace fired from the shoulder would have fallen under that interpretation.
