I'm sorry some of you are feeling like a victim of my actions. I can assure you my intensions are not malicious. From my perspective, I saw the BATF post about the ruling and I skimmed over it and didn't spend a lot of time reading about all the butthurt here. I was busy with other stuff.
Saturday morning I was making my tea and I thought; "hmmmm I wonder if the BATF is allowing registration yet", so without asking GD for permission I went to the bookmark I had for efile, and the website I had saved from many years ago was not even valid anymore. So I went to the new site and tried to log in, but it made me change my password. That is how long it has been since I messed with Form 1's. Once I got logged into the efile site I see a big button that says effectively to click here to form 1 your braced pistol. So I explore to see what's what with the registration process, and it was so easy I ended up registering my 3 braced pistols. Then I come here to post about it, and a gang of butthurt Karens descend on anything I post, accusing me of being a BATF agent. LOL! |

You guys who are blanket castigating everyone who has asked questions or suggested that they are considering amnesty registering their pistol as an SBR need to step off your high horse. There are situations where it makes sense to get the free tax stamp (those who already have NFA items registered, for example and were already planning to SBR their braced pistols anyway). There are also situations where it makes sense for some to think very carefully before amnesty registering (those who have NO NFA items registered, for example).
Those who also throw around the "I will not comply", "become ungovernable", "don't lick the boot", "don't bend the knee" and all the other tropes defying gov't authority need to have a retrospective and ask themselves: 1 - Why do I have a brace on this pistol instead of just putting a stock on it? 2 - Did I vehemently fight against and refuse to obey the ATF ruling about FRT's? 3 - Did I vehemently fight against and refuse to obey the ATF ruling about Form 1 suppressors? 4 - Did I vehemently fight against and refuse to obey the ATF ruling about bumpstocks? 5 - If I can't answer "yes" to #2, 3 and 4, why not? 6 - Were people "bending the knee" when they registered their machineguns in 1934? How about during the machinegun amnesty in 1968? By all means we should all unite in fighting against ATF abuses, making new law, amending definitions, reinterpreting things, and yes - the new brace rule. But that doesn't mean that someone who takes a free stamp is crossing the picket line or somehow hurting the cause. Personally, I think everyone that had already intended to register their braced pistols are SBR's should absolutely take the free stamps. The number of people that do that (or don't do that) is highly unlikely to have any effect on pending litigation regarding braces, nor any effect on subsequent actions that the ATF takes, or doesn't take. Mostly, it's just going to save these people $200 per SBR, the cost of engraving and cause those eForm approval wait times to drastically increase. |

So, I honestly can’t recall, can you swap the brace out after approval to a collapsible stock of your choice or is the receiver married to the brace?

View Quote #10 Page 4 - https://www.atf.gov/rules-and-regulations/docs/undefined/faqfinalrule2021r-08f-correctedpdf/download Yes you can change the brace out for a stock. You will have a fully registered NFA SBR - forms to fill out to sell it, forms to fill out if you change the length it, forms to fill out to take it across state lines, forms when you die and will it, etc. |

Quoted: My prediction: 1. People will apply for and receive free tax stamps. 2. ATF gets beat down in court, and stops giving away free tax stamps. Said beat down rules that arm braces are cool. 3. Everyone that got a free stamp before they stopped giving free stamps will still have a free stamp. 4. Low information whiners will wish they had free stamps. View Quote I think there is a decent chance that this is indeed how it plays out, except that the time frame involved could be years. Honestly I think ATF stepped in it while trying to kiss up to Biden on this stuff, and it could mean the end of NFA. Hilarious if it works out that way. “Never interrupt the enemy when they are making a mistake“ and all that... The real wild cards are states like WA, OR, IL, etc trying to out do each other on infringements. ATF may very well not get someones form approved before their state fucks them over, and then ATF conveniently denies the application. We saw this for about a year in WA state- SBR’s were approved for Form 1, some weasel pointed out a poorly written state law to ATF, and Form 1 approvals for SBR’s stopped until the legislature fixed the law (meanwhile, Form 4’d SBR’s were still going thru). They will use anything to deny you, just FYI. Sure wish the Supreme Court would just come out and do a blanket “mag and semi auto bans are unconstitutional, anywhere”. Instead we have WA moving to be more restrictive than CA by 2024... The whole cycle of infringement, legal battles, wins/losses, some freedoms restored....it gets real old. |

I’d like to see the actual law that says braces are illegal.
Not some bullshit “rule” the AFT made that’s gonna get shot down. But the actual law congress passed… Show me. Because until then, the AFT can go fuck themselves…. |

There is no law. Rule is literally atf saying they were wrong, that braces were stocks the whole time.
Here's food for thought.... you were already playing thier game when you put the brace on. If your going non compliance now, then why didn't you go that route before? |

To those who think you are getting something for free, yeah, you may be saving $200.... but it isn't "free".
Not to mention, the BATFE is IGNORING THE NFA when they don't collect the $200 stamp. This is illegal. Also, where's my free suppressor stamp? Since .gov is handing out free shit, do I get any? How about a rebate on all the other stamps I've paid for? Can I get a credit? No worries, I guess. I'm just the sucker who obeys the law and pays for unethical government shit. |

Again, false dichotomy; not everyone who defends their choice and/or resists the ATF on this topic is going to go to prison for 10 years. A small number of people will fight it in court, probably win, and do zero years in prison. Others will never get "caught" and spend zero days in prison. Others will comply and still, potentially, go to prison on a technicality, related or otherwise, in the future when the next infringement is announced. If we don't resist the ATF on these "little" things, who the hell is going to stand up against the BIG things that are certainly down the road? Recall also that the bumpstock ban recently got overturned- thanks to people resisting! I agree with the spirit of most of the rest of what you said, though. I fault people not a whit if they intend to resist and NOT be vocal about it; but we can't/shouldn't ALL do that. |

Quoted: EDIT 2: The only reason I bought braced pistols is to SBR them. Now the government says I can SBR them for free and I don't have to have them engraved. The lack of engraving saves me $100 per gun and 180 mile roundtrip drive. That is a $300+ savings per SBR (tax stamp + engraving). I have 3 braced pistols + $100 for the drive. This ruling just saved me $1000 and 5 hours getting the engraving done. View Quote LOL. NOTHING from the government is free. You’re a fool if you think so and that this won’t bite our 2A freedoms in the ass. |

how long before the ATF determines things in the NFA registry are to dangerous or to easily concealed and must be turned in..

NOTHING from the government is free. You’re a fool if you think so and that this won’t bite our 2A freedoms in the ass. I keep seeing this, but the reasoning is always nebulous. Of course it's not free; until the ruling was signed (not released), you could freely buy/sell/modify a braced pistol. Sure the parts have value, but the total value is now diminished. FFL's are busy re-assessing. The local FFL here pulled all Braced-Pistols from the shelves on Saturday. The government is attempting to reach into our pockets with this one, in an effort to squash the prevalence of these pistols. The waiving of the tax is in line with every other reclassification since the inception of the NFA. It also may be used as a method of reducing physical resistance to the ruling, and to reduce the standing of legislative opposition. It doesn't need to be a Machiavellian trap, of epic proportions, when it has been done previously (though not on this scale). Hopefully the various legal challenges that are being planned will prevail in either delaying the ruling, or extending the grace period. |

View Quote I'm going to register a .22 as an sbr as long as its free. Never felt right paying $200 for a fuckin .22. They're going to fuck our freedoms regardless of my NFA collection or not. I am not introducing anything to the system in terms of compliance that I haven't already been complying with. Those of you who have no NFA items will obviously feel differently and I encourage your resistance to tyranny. I got no dog in this fight. I have fuckin tons of NFA shit already and pretty sure my post habits on social media and IRL training, networking, etc has me on several lists many times over. I would rather not get hemmed up on a bullshit law just so they can more easily coerce me into informing on other patriots. It's like driving with a tail light out while you're committing other crimes, its just stupid. I'll take a free stamp from the dumb cunts because "Man with 10 legally owned SBRs goes to jail for 11th unregistered SBR" sounds like a pretty fuckin stupid headline. Anyone who feels like not complying is doing good work though, there's millions of people who will be doing the lords work and I hope they give the ATF hell. But for me, that ship sailed many thousands of dollars in cuck-stamps ago. |

Quoted: Hard no on that, watching you squirm is awesome. It’s also cool to interact with a self described “old timer” that calls people bro, bro! View Quote I'm 63 and I call people Bro. I am also going to take adva0ntage of the free stamps. I've wanted to SBR the pistols for a while, and to the OPs point, it makes financial sense. Your shit is already known by the ATF unless you own all 80% shit, or never filled out a 4473. You can check my join date, post count for all the fuckin glowie shit as well. |

Quoted: Everyone who put a brace on a pistol was already complying, that was the whole point of the brace. Whole lot of tough guys in GD who complied with literally every part of the NFA but now think taking braces away should be everyone else’s hill to die on.
