Came across this video on Tactical-Life.com and wanted to share what I thought was an interesting part of it. The video is of a guy being confronted by police while exercising his 2A rights. He is carrying a CMMG AR-9 pistol with a brace in a place where it is legal to open carry a pistol, but not a rifle.
At about the :48 mark, the cops begin to question him on his weapon and they seem to have difficulty understanding why it is not a rifle. Just a reminder that, while we all may be well versed on <16" barrel/brace configuration legalities, not all cops are gun guys and may have trouble understanding why a weapon such as this is not a pistol. They have to pull out their iPhones and get online to determine that he is correct in stating it is a pistol.
Makes me think also about how this situation might apply if you were carrying an 80% Glock build.
