I guess the pride of taking and submitting photos of the entire item for approval is a sign of good citizenship...

ATF can't make law... Congress does that.

So, what's the forum's consensus* on rule 2021R-08F...

...stand-by (don't register for the 'free' tax stamp yet) and see what the court does?

*not taking as legal advice.

My question still is; can you register imported pistols? To my understanding the ATF declared that imported pistols are not covered under 922. However, if made into a rifle they would be non 922 compliant. So, can someone SBR/apply for a tax stamp imported pistols legally in other words without violating 922?

Is it ethical or unethical for dealers to be selling braced pistols without a notice in the advertisement that as of now the ATF requires you register it as a SBR if you buy one?

Heh. Yeah, lots of places still selling braces.
Guess they don't want to eat the cost of all that inventory.

From my understanding, as of the date of publish to the federal register, those firearms must be sold under a form 4. It's to late. The amnesty period is for anyone that has them to form 1 them, but it became illegal to commercially sell them when it was published.

I don't know what the consensus is, but my questions have been answered sufficiently enough that I have efiled two form 1s from braced pistols. Already done and fingerprints submitted.

I'm hopeful that those who choose to wait are rewarded with court victories and the ban is struck down and to add icing on the cake ATF is still burdened with the loss of hundreds of thousands(millions) of tax stamps.

That's a good question. I was under the impression that it's not technically effective until 120 days has passed, but IANAL

The ATF are domestic terrorists and I don't negotiate with terrorists. I'm sure some admins of this forum are in a circle jerk with each other while screeching "i ToLd ThEm ThEiR rIgHtS aRe,Nt AbSoLuTe".

Dealers have 60 days to clear their inventory.
