Since only the third page of the letter appears in the article, we don't know for sure what was actually
submitted. From the wording, it appears to have been a shotgun with a barrel under 18", with a VFG
and a Sig SB-15.
While the weapon is undoubtedly a shotgun, the discussion here should be whether this new letter
may affect usage of the SB-15 on AR firearms. The ATF may be ruling on this specific type or
instance of firearm, or it may be positioning for a reversal of its original "using the brace improperly
does not constitute a design change" ruling. (05 March 2015 Earl Griffith letter to Greenwood, CO
PD).
The article specifically states the submitted firearm is "a short-barreled shotgun design that incorporated
the SB15 brace ". I'm surprised the ATF didn't classify it as an SBS immediately.
If anyone else finds the complete letter, please post.
