New BATF ruling on stabilizing braces today

[nonobaddog]

Well they need to have positive identification so they know which door to kick down.

There is a process to go through. Sending an email is not that process.

This. Your "friend" is an idiot.

He probably also mails letters to the sheriff to report crimes in progress.

Well, it wasn't his friend. I think he was quoting someone from another forum. That person was an idiot (the one that sent the email).

My biggest concern is not being on the ATF's 'list' of registered weapons in the first place.

Did you fill out a 4473 for that firearm?? Then you’re on the list…..

hence the quotes. shorter than "that guy on the other board you mentioned"

There was recent video of an ATF agent scanning 4473s. Makes you wonder how much of that is going on and what their trying to do with that info.

I have heard there is some where between 10 and 40 million firearms with braces..Im sure many own more than one...but for arguments sake, let say that is one per person. If even 10% of the owners don't comply what are they going to do? Imprison 1 to 4 million Americans?

I told someone to just take the upper off the lower and remove the brace and get rid of it.

That should keep them legal shouldn't it?

They don't care about imprisoning you. They will just make sure you never own another firearm. Thats the goal, not imprisonment.

Looks like you can't put it in a trust either, unless it already in one. As for the ATF coming to your house, call local law enforcement, apparently they aren't real impressed with them either.

After registering the firearm (lower) what what stop you from then putting a legit stock on the newly minted SBR? Can it really be stamp free SBR’s for all, I doubt it? I know it is a registration scheme and all, just asking.

Have to notify if length of pull changes

Destroy the brace, upper and unbraced lower is a legal pistol

 

[snorko]

Not a lawyer but...

So far the easiest paths to compliance seem to be either snap on a `16" upper for an AR pistol or for any pistol remove the brace (and destroy, make unmountable, whatever you did with your bump stock).

 

[Sigblitz]

Lots of pistols for sale in the local classifieds...

And could need stamped to sell on Tuesday, and moved to nfa

the way it’s written now, it may not be. I’ve seen posts about them claiming a buffer tube is still shoulder-able, which could define bare ar pistols as sbr’s, so who really knows.

This is a BIG move towards preventing firearm sales… a massive step towards gun control and a super slippery slope to abide by. If we comply now, we’re Canada in 10 years.

 

[Cameramonkey]

They don't care about imprisoning you. They will just make sure you never own another firearm and cant afford to feed your family due to your legal fees and monetary penalties. Thats the goal, not imprisonment.

FIFY

I’m not seeing them. Been looking.

4 of them in the first 2 pages, but one was just withdrawn from sale due to the new regulations.

I'd suggest everyone else with one listed should do the same

Glad I sold mine a couple of years ago.
