I don't trust what I read on the internet.
Time to fire off a letter to ATF for clarification on this issue. |
|
I would want to see something more official than the maker of a brace saying so.
That being said...bout fucking time. |
|
|
There is only one thing to do now...write 1,000's of letters to the ATF asking the same question regarding shouldering the brace
|
|
Tomorrow I'll write the ATF and let you all know when I've successfully fucked this up

Nice-
The new clarification of opinion letter states, “an NFA firearm has not necessarily been made when the device is not reconfigured for use as a shoulder stock – even if the attached firearm happens to be fired from the shoulder. To the extent that the January 2015 Open Letter implied or has been construed to hold that incidental, sporadic, or situational “use” of an arm-brace (in its original approved configuration) equipped firearm from a firing position at or near the shoulder was sufficient to constitute “redesign,” such interpretations are incorrect and not consistent with ATF’s interpretation of the statute or the manner in which it has historically been enforced.” |

Still FATF, but tax free SBRs and all the letters the FATF can handle until Trump is out of office!
|
|
Huh... The shockwave I have looks pretty damn uncomfortable as a stock, but its good this retardation as been suspended for now.
|
|
|
So will that hold true for other pistol stocks like the Shockwave or Thordsen? Maybe I should email the ATF for clarification.
|
|
|
And now everyone knows why MAC was posting videos of him shouldering a brace....
Because he already knew about the letter... |
|
Who gives a fuck? They'll just "reverse" their decision next month. Over reaching, unConstitutional Statists organization. Abolish.

lol
I'm sure there are some stamp collectors out there writing angry letters to the ATF right now. |
|
Anyone have a link to the actual letter from BATFE?
I trust nothing until I see that. |
|
|
|
Were people actually caring what the BATFE jerk offs thought?
|
|
Lol, it's always been legal. ATF does not make law and can't even interpret in a completely asinine way like "putting something to your shoulder is manufacturing it!".
Non issue and always has been except for "gotcha" internet lawyers. Same with overly broad interpretations of 922r. "Oh noes, the ATF is going to come count the parts on my Saiga-12!!!!" |

Relax everyone. I just sent an email to the ATF to make sure. I recommend you guys do it too.

Awhile back, I was just looking......in a local gun store. Yup.....an AR15 with the sig brace called to me. Yup, I put it up to my shoulder and was immediately "corrected" by the store guy.
Sorry about that. I gave it back immediately. And left the store out of shame. Anyone thinks it's safe to go back now? Aloha, Mark |

That article is dated April 25, 2017.
Good news from tomorrow I guess. |
|
Serious question, what does this really mean in the practical use of AR pistols? Am I clear to shoulder my shockwave? Does anybody know?
|
|
|
Tag for official letter as I am looking at a Scorpion........
|
|
I wish somebody important enough to do something about it would realize how stupid the SBR/SBS law and suppressor laws are.
Open the MG registry and let the stamps from them cover the "loss" of the revenue. |
