The contingency was only that you were eligible for tax exemption.
Your registration is as permanent as any.
There is no good reason to think ATF will pull the SBR registrations in any scenario.
They'd have to announce another new policy to do it.
They like registrations, they're not in the business of un-registering guns.

If this gets tossed as unconstitutional there is a good chance SBR registration goes away altogether.

They have given you a forbearance on the tax. That’s it. That’s all. No Amnesty.  In 1968 you could have been a three time felon that stole a rack of M-16s from the national guard Armory down the street and you could’ve registered them with no repercussions. NONE.  Because of the amnesty that the ATF wrote back then. Do you think that all of those ATF attorneys and the .gov after years of looking at this forgot to write that into this one? Please.

ATF didn't write the 1968 amnesty, it's statutory law included in the gun control act of 1968 that was passed by Congress.

Also in the law is statutory authority for the Secretary of the Treasury to offer an unlimited number of amnesties in the future. So far there have been none.

I think it is, rationally & without emotional investment, a valid argument.

We believe the NFA is an unconstitutional abomination (among others).  That aside, the entire brace decision making process at the ATF has been based on it.  You don't have to agree with it to understand that.

Based on the statutory language of the NFA, Technical Branch initially approved the initial design based on the idea that these weren't designed to be shouldered.  Then people shouldered them.  Bureaucrats gonna bureaucrat.

Courts don't deal - or shouldn't - in emotional responses.  This process should cause a review of the statutory basis (the NFA) vis-a-vis the Constitution.  In the past that was a crap shoot.  Today we assume it will go positively.

The NFA was passed in 1934 & amended 1936.

Franklin D. Roosevelt was President.  Reagan was a sportscaster then.  He was elected President in 1980.

Congress added the Hughes Amendment to the Firearm Owners Protection Act in 1986, which amended the Gun Control Act of 1968.  That has nothing to do with braces or SBRs.

I agree that this could be an opportunity to push back on the NFA as a whole....but calling this rule change a "perfectly reasonable ATF judgement" is pants on head retarded.  If for no other reason, because they created the very "problem" they're trying to solve, with dozens of previous technical letters approving braces.  There is nothing reasonable about turning millions of people into felons because they own / use a product that the ATF previously said was perfectly legal.

I wish, but I don't see it happening as a direct result of this.

Reason; SBR's are actually enumerated in the legislation passed by congress and signed by the president.  So legally, they are under the authority of the ATF to do what they're doing.  Constitutionally, that's another argument, but it's a high bar to get the courts to overturn legislation that's gone through the appropriate process, and has been affirmed by the Supreme Court already.

Not impossible, but there's still a lot of work to do to get to that point.

So apply that same logic to the rare breed FRT's. ATF(and MULTIPLE prior ATF tech branch heads) stated "nope this isnt a MG", now ATF is apparently going to people houses and saying "hey you bought a MG illegally, turn it over or we get warrant and you go to jail..."

It is a logical argument with the framework of the NFA and ATF rule making.  But that subset of law and rule making doesn't exist in vacuum now.  Arguably it did before Heller, McDonald and Bruen as long as the plain meaning of the Second Amendment was ignored by the courts and Chevron deference was assumed - which it was.  

The NFA was unconstitutional from its passage.  It relied on the fig leaf of taxation.  Miller was a set up case that was wrongly but purposely decided on the argument that the firearms covered under the NFA had no militia utility and the Second Amendment protected the militia as a collective right not an individual right.  That was the dominant legal interpretation until Heller.

That stems from a collectivist and statist perspective.  Like early British gun control (1920s) - its fine for Lord Plummy and Colonel Blimp to have guns, but we don't want potentially revolutionary peasants to have them.  Remember that the 30s was the age of collectivist governments and FDR was pretty much a collectivist dictator (lite) who used the iron hand in the velvet glove to reshape America.  And the NFA grew out of a legislative agenda to ban pistols.

Who does this apply to?  Everyone needs to watch the video I linked.  I went to law school, i used to practice law.  Mark Smith and the Four Boxes Diner is the best 2A law resource I’ve ever found.  He really knows his stuff and doesn’t engage in hyperbole and clickbait.  He’s as legit as it gets.

He gets into who is covered and why the legal question isn’t as clear as we would like.  I’ll take his analysis over folks in this thread.

Hot Link to Video

Who does this apply to?  Everyone needs to watch the video I linked.  I went to law school, i used to practice law.  Mark Smith and the Four Boxes Diner is the best 2A law resource I’ve ever found.  He really knows his stuff and doesn’t engage in hyperbole and clickbait.  He’s as legit as it gets.

He gets into who is covered and why the legal question isn’t as clear as we would like.  I’ll take his analysis over folks in this thread.

So basically he provided no new information and managed to take 9 minutes to do so?

The outstanding question is whether the relief provided to FPC extends to its members, to which he says he doesn't know.

He then says he doesn't know if FPC even has members. Simply going to their website and looking in the top left corner you'll see a button that says "Join."

If you click the "join" button in the top left corner and the "donate" button in the top right corner they take you to different landing pages. So it would have taken him less than 60 seconds to answer the question he claims he doesn't know the answer to, and he provides no answers to the question we all have. In my opinion he is about as clickbait as it gets.

Either the NFA is the NFA or it’s not. Strike down the perfectly reasonable ATF judgement on this ( based on existing NFA guidance ) and the NFA is 100% modified to no longer include length ( at least ! ).

It's not sarcasm. Last year,  with his old username 01911, Iwas01911 made a big deal about gun control laws are constitutional because the legislature passed them.

COC prevents me from outright saying that just based on that i'm pretty sure he has a few extra chromosomes. So I won't.

So we won't get any real answers until first week of July probably?

Absent the current administration coming to their senses and dropping this I think early July is best case scenario as far as a time frame.
