Re: So it begins.

And on further reflection, it would appear that the change in definition is merely a matter of who is president at the time. If a democrat is elected in 2020, you safety bet that ATF will rescind that letter, and issue a new one restablishing the rules under Obama. It's a fickle definition. Until the NFA is struck down, at least an SBR's definition won't change. Yeah, it's a $200 stamp, and a wait for permission; but once it's done, it's done.TreyHouston wrote:The Annoyed Man wrote:An SBR is a short barreled rifle, not a pistol.

The braces are legal for sale, and they are legal for use as a brace on a pistol, but it is illegal to use such a brace as a buttstock to shoulder the weapon. ATF has been very clear also, that if caught shouldering a pistol with a brace, the pistol instantly becomes an unregistered SBR, and you do NOT want to be in possession of such a thing without the stamp for it. An ATF registered SBR is perfectly legal to shoulder, because it is legally a rifle....just one with a short barrel.TreyHouston wrote:So let me ask.

Totally arbitrary nonsense? Yes. But it is the law nonetheless.
https://www.nraila.org/articles/2017042 ... ing-braces
The new letter maintains the position that “the use of stabilizing braces, as designed, would not create a short-barreled rifle when attached to a firearm.”
But it then goes on to clarify that “an NFA firearm has not necessarily been made … even if the attached firearm happens to be fired from the shoulder.”
thank you
And sorry about hijacking the thread!
