The ATF has published a letter with "clarifications" for what in there determination makes an AR type braced pistol an SBR requiring registration under the NFA. However there are no clear metrics that someone could adhere to and avoid running afoul of the ATF, only vague statements presumably to frighten braced pistol owners into registering them with the ATF or dismantling/destroying them.
The ATF is allowing a 2 week comment period and I would encourage everyone to respond and to ask friends and
family to do the same.
I would also recommend writing or calling our Federal Representatives and ask them to rein in the ATF.

Ive been reading a lot on this, and watching some videos, no one has any Idea I dont think. they are all different
BUT my question is,
if you submit for a stamp.
1 do you get a free $5 Any other weapon stamp? where you have to keep a brace and never shoulder it?
2 or do you get a free $200 SBR stamp? where you can stick any stock you want on it.

Guidance casting legal doubt on braces, withdrawn. https://freebeacon.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/sbcriteria_withdraw.not_.final_draft.12-23-20_with_typed_signature.pdf Just kicking the can down the road, especially with a sympathetic administration coming in and a possible upset in the Senate on Jan 5. This isn't near over.
