WTF?

On what basis did that evil agency do this?

If I had my way every BATFE office would be burned to the ground. Everyone who has ever worked in any capacity would be castrated and then live the rest of their miserable lives in the general population of a maximum security prison.

The gun control acts of 1934, 1968 and 1986 are anti-constitutional. The deep state wants to undercut Trump with his supporters on 2A. Butt even Reagan did this sh*t.

I can’t see it as anything but another example of the nation’s
deep state/unconstitutional fourth branch of government overreach.

I've avoided braces for any of my AR pistol builds. I have two NFA tax stamped SBRs. The process is a pain in the butt. I have a paid-in-full 22LR suppressor that has been sitting in my FFLs safe for 2 years. The extra complexity added to doing a Form 4 with an NFA trust is complicated by trying to track my son down to provide two damn pieces of paper. If it can't get it done soon, I'll have to ask my FFL for a refund for property I can't possess for stupid paperwork.

It’s not full auto. Interesting... I was watching a show on YouTube about this. They commented that it was legal if it included an arm brace.

Apparently not any more.

when in Heaven’s name will ATF finally be brought to an end!? we are supposed to be a constitutional republic and not be ruled by an administrative dictatorship working 24/7 against our US Constitution (and our liberties it recognizes).
Let’s reassign the employees to other jobs where they can actually do some good instead of being given assignments that help undermine and destroy our country

Checking their website, I can see no difference between the mentioned pistol and their short barreled rifle for what it’s worth.

Deciding that a plastic bump stock is a machine gun is even worse.

Your situation is nothing more or less than unconstitutional action taken against you by the despicable, self-anointed “fourth” branch of government.
