ATF Just Released Their Brace Ruling

[ExFlyinguy]

and let the lawsuits and requests for injunctions begin, I am curious as to what they are really doing behind our backs because as it stands this has very little chance of truly going through. Between the letters and pretty much everything else set forth previously they have no true leg to stand on. Or maybe that's just me being paranoid again.

I have no interest whatsoever in you not being correct.....but my gut feeling is they have a much better case against braces than they did with bumpstocks.

I don't disagree with you, I think this very well could be stopped by a court ruling, I just don't know if it will happen in 1 week or 5 years.

So if it takes 5 years, I want my free stamp for my stamp collection now, and I want to put another +1 in the number of registered SBRs that is used as evidence in court to support that SBRs are "in common use".

Because hopefully we can all one day forget about barrel length rather than worrying about if the officer pulling me over is up to speed on the latest status of a pistol brace.

From the NFA group on reddit:

A number of misconceptions have surfaced since this Pistol Brace news - here’s a list of the most common statements that are believed to be inaccurate with sources that may alleviate your concern:

88 day background or straight to jail False - SOURCE @ 7:40 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGdj...ature=youtu.be

ATF adding a “Revoke” status to eForm portal SOURCE @ 4:30 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsSz...ature=youtu.be

Self-incrimination by submitting amnesty F1 Likely False - SOURCE - https://www.reddit.com/r/NFA/comment...tm_name=iossmf

The source is in regard to Federal self-incrimination; Local/State self-incrimination may vary by State and local law. When submitting for an amnesty F1, the ATF has indicated that a photo showing the entire braced firearm is not required - it is generally advised applicants upload a photo limited to the manufacturer markings / serial.

922r compliance or destroy your import if it has a brace False - SOURCE - https://thereload.com/atf-says-impor...hed-next-week/

I can install a stock the moment I certify an amnesty F1 False - SOURCE - https://www.reddit.com/r/NFA/comment...tm_name=iossmf

NFA owners are prohibited from letting others use their NFA items while supervised, per eForm portal FAQ False - SOURCE - https://bearingarms.com/ryan-petty/2...-owners-n66642

the amnesty stamp is not free - the ATF used the word tax “forbearance” because they will collect $200 in the future for every amnesty F1 you submit Likely False - SOURCE - https://imgur.com/a/o6xWaRq

The Attorney General has authority to temporarily waive this excise tax & the precedence exists

Thank you. Once someone shares bogus info it spreads like wildfire. As I said above, we need to have as much accurate information as possible so that we can each make a well-informed decision for ourselves.

Is there an *agreed upon* date for which the 120 day "amnesty" window begins or began?

It starts when the final rule is published in the Federal Register (FR). The FR has a posting today that says it will be published tomorrow, 1/31.

With how significantly it's changed from the proposed rule they should ship this back for another 90 comment period.

They'll do what they want and you'll fall in line, or they'll shoot your dog and put you in prison forever.

What if I don't have a dog? Will they shoot my cats?

They may bring a govt-issue dog to shoot if you don't have one.

And they cost $750,000 each.

Remember that 400lb instgram idiot who visited a horse farm and cried because she wasn't allowed to ride the horses because they would die. Not making a point, i just remembered that and it made me smile.
