Nolo did a FOIA earlier this year.

ATF has not evaluated ANY submitted industry sample in over two years....They put them on the shelf and log them in.  I have had a sample in to ATF since October 31. 2018.

You CAN'T get any guidance from ATF other than a gotcha moment when they claim you violated the law.  They will not tell what is legal but will bust you if you fail secret/unknown build criteria.

Was going to write something similar, without the weight of your evidence.

I was under the impression the ATF was NOT issuing determination letters.

I seem to recall that not even being a secret anymore, that they had announced they wouldn't be doing it going forward. But I may be wrong on that.

So, they aren't issuing letters......... then they go after the manufacturers for not having letters??

Precisely what is happening currently.

I would also add that I have received no correspondence with ATF about any refusal, nor have the ATF returned my sample stating they refuse to examine it.

The last point is if you are correct and they have  publicly stated their refusal then that email (an official communication from ATF to an FFL) would indicate a deception on ATF's behalf and an intentional false statement in order to entrap....

Otherwise known as "entrapment by estoppel" in federal court.

JE machine, Davidson defense... Who the fuck are these clowns? LMT and B5 are the current contractors for the SOPMOD stock, last I checked. And they both charge $100+

Granted, the B5 Bravo is awesome, probably the best stock on the market for the money.

I bought three of the JE stocks, they are great.

They have a slightly rougher texture than the LMT and the storage tubes have a different retention method.

They fit mil spec receiver extensions perfectly, I’ll never pay $200 for an LMT again.

Looks like SB Tactical has their brace approved. Then proceeded to make other braces based on the same brace but attaches to different guns. Because it is logical as the function and core design never changed from the approved version.

But now ATF wants a separate approval for every type of firearm the brace will be attached to?  Pants on head retarded.

That's the point.  


“Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced or objectively interpreted – and you create a nation of law-breakers – and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with.”

Oh wait a minute, I have a better idea... how about I send you a hobo's dick cheese?  Go fuck yourself.
View Quote

This must be the third or fourth time I've seen this suggestion posted in the past couple days.

Where are you guys finding all the hobos? It's winter here in MT.
How do you get them to submit to the dick cheese harvesting? Are you paying for it?
How much dick cheese can you get off a hobo? Are you harvesting multiple hobos for each parcel of dick cheese you send to someone you don't like?

I'm curious because there are several parcels I'd like to mail as well, but I'm just not willing to do the harvesting myself. I'd prefer it to be like getting something from the grocery store instead of hunting it. Or even better, like ordering online from Hickory Farms and having it shipped directly to the recipient.

So, if I could send a list of addresses to one of you out there playing with hobo dicks, I'd be happy to include enough money for postage and some extra for your time if you'd be willing to harvest and mail for me. I'll need to see some reviews of your business first though. Or at least have really good EE feedback.

Take a look at the letter here.  Implies constructive possession

There is a reason both the Tailhook Mod2 and the Shockwave 2.0 have proprietary tubes. Why would they go through that effort if a carbine tube was fine?

This was all debated ad nauseam when the SBA3 came out.  Both the no letter issue and using a carbine tube.  

There might be other contradictory letters, but again why did the manufactures who have letters use proprietary tubes?

Even before there were braces. Buffer tubes were gtg to use as a pistol. Thats why some people even put some paracord or something on the buffer tube. I’ll have yo do some digging but its true. Thats why sb never bothered with a letter. Because braces were gtg, buffer tubes were gtg so they put them together.
Edit: found the letter, now if you only have the pistol and not a rifle and have a buttstock even if not installed, that might cause a problem.

^100%

The Bill of Rights is not an exhaustive list of individual rights, nor was it intended to be. Yet politicians/bureaucrats STILL IGNORE it.

People should reject slavery, not abide by it, because in the end it boils down to individual and property rights. If you can't own yourself or keep your own stuff; then you're merely a ward of the state. Groveling and begging for permission to own or do things that they claim dominion over and can take away from you for any reason they deem fit...

Government's sole purpose should be to protect individual/property rights, and seek just punishment for those whom violate or infringe-upon other people's rights. The end, that's it.
