My solution is to act like an adult, confront them when possible in a public forum, document their positions and answers, share those through as many social media platforms as possible and try to involve as many friendly elected officials as possible. It seems like SHOT might be a great venue to do that.

Futile? Maybe, but at least it isn't acting like a petulant child babbling about the wrath of God.

Well Sparky what's your solution? Because nothing over the last 15 to 20 years is working with the ATF. So they need to be wiped clean by the wrath God

You want to go right ahead knock yourself out. Acting like an adult with them hasn't worked has it? They continue to rewrite the rules that they approved years ago. They don't listen to any comments or points that you make. They don't care....the rank and file and the leadership of the ATF are anti-gun top to bottom and they don't give a shit what we think, they don't give a shit about the points we make.

Has any of the points that people have brought up and I was one of them during the comment sections of things like 41p, bump stocks and braces have worked at all? No it hasn't. We have no friends in the elected officials. They don't care. If the Republicans gave a shit when they were in power they would have reeled the ATF in years ago. But they didn't.

I have tried to engage the ATF agents personally about concerns that I had about the way they change things arbitrarily and interpreted things differently after interpreting them one way. They used to have a booth every year in Louisville Kentucky at the big gun show there. Every year I would engage them every year they would say- here's a pamphlet if you have any concerns you can write or call.

The bottom line is they don't care about what we say, what we think, what points we make and whatever social media we pontificate on.


I get what you're saying I really do. And I'm not trying to bust your chops. But all the comments all of the emails all of the engagement whether in person or on social media ain't working

There are also undercover agents. And that’s not conspiracy. Maybe not ATF, but federal agents do attend plainclothes.

Yes they will help you right out of your freedoms and life if told to do so. Fuck them one and all. If they want to help they can go raid the projects in Chicago where the real criminals live.But that would require balls.

There is undercover ATF at Wanenmacher too, had one inquire about a gun I was walking around with for sale, he looked like a fed, i later saw him behind the ATF table on the upper level.

They definitely approved more then one kind.  There was this one company that churned out a bunch of different braces with no approval letters.  That company had a lot of defenders on this site.

I should have remembered that subtlety is lost on GD.

The "do they have a booth" was a rhetorical question to set up the real question: If the "free" registration and 120 day registration period is just a ploy to dupe people into admitting that they are in possession of an "illegal SBR", then why isn't the ATF busting all of those manufacturers and dealers for selling "illegal SBRs?"

Most manufacturers can legally make all of the SBRs that they want.  They are not transferring them to non licensees at SHOT.

Not to say that a braced pistol is an SBR, though.

So?  The law used to be 18" minimum barrel length for rifles, but then lots of M1 Carbines we're imported, so they changed it 16".  They've far exceeded that mistake now.  The rifle barrel stuff is arbitrary anyway.  They need to unfuck themselves.

I've heard that before but it's not the reason. M1 carbine has an 18 in barrel.

Walk up and ask “how many cocks do you have to suck to be an ATF agent?”

Any number between 1-infinity “yeah, you definitely got hired”
