We are drafting an alert and will be sending it out on Monday. It will have suggested language for the public comment period. You can always modify the suggested text.

13,000 comment so far... add yours in if you haven't!

I clicked a few randomly and have only seen pro-2A comments so far, whereas with the bump stock comments there were quite a few anti-2A comments (maybe 60/40 pro/anti?). So that's slightly encouraging. Spread the word and get the #s into six figures.

Everyone who used a pre-written comment: go back and check to see if it's there (after a day or two to let the system refresh). I believe there's an automated process filtering out duplicate comments.

Rephrase in your own words and try again!!!!

could it be because of the withdraw??
"Upon further consultation with the Department of Justice and the Office of the Deputy Attorney General, ATF is withdrawing, pending further Department of Justice review, the notice and request for comments entitled *Objective Factors for Classifying Weapons with *Stabilizing Braces*,* that was published on December 18, 2020. 85 FR 82516
