I finally got to zero my BCM Recce 11.5 today and for once in my life remembered to get a little video. I thought about posting it, but for the life of me, I can't remember if I shouldered it or not. Is that really a thing?

ETA: to better clarify my ignorance; is it expected that with an SBA 3 brace it cannot touch your shoulder?

At least got a pic

If I didn't intend to shoulder it, I wouldn't have it

I agree, but I don't want an issue to arise because of a 12 sec video that may or may not show a SBA3 brace touching my arm.

That is true, today.  But what about the next anti-gun president.  Rules change, ya know.

Once something is out there, it never, ever goes away.

There's always a .5 micron spacing between my shoulder and the brace when firing, just getting that out there on a public forum.

Cool. Seems like such a stupid question, but considering all the nuance laws and blah blah. Crazy to think on my own property I have to wonder this, but the internet is forever. On the other side of that, why even consider hiding it? It's a God-given right and I was worried a video (possibly) depicting a technicality could lead to an issue.

I've probably accidentally shouldered my AR pistol at least once or twice.  I mean, I'm sure I probably did.

I refuse to identify my shoulder braces as anything but "non-binary gun accessory thingies." Additionally, I command an Army of Karens on Facebook to smite bigots who do. Fear Me!

Perhaps, "the non-shoulder thing that doesn't go up?"

Sometimes it accidentally makes really firm solid contact with my shoulder while I demonstrate proper gun control, but absolutely not Mr. ATF man, I did not shoulder that pistol brace.

Technically speaking, unless you're shooting shirtless, it's not touching your shoulder.

Went out shooting the other day and brought my CZ Evo with folding brace.  BIL went to shoot it and I told him to make sure he doesn't shoulder it (he's a city cop)  He just laughed, I laughed, his 2 Sheriff buddies laughed, the ATF laughed......was a good time.

Shouldering is for a buttstock.
I have a brace and I'm simply letting it massage by shoulder.
Shit I massage myself all the time

I don't shoot mine from the shoulder, I place it against the pectoralis major, which is technically part of the chest, not the shoulder. It may slip to the shoulder under recoil, but my intent is always to brace it against a chest muscle. That's my story.

Dude, you’re caring too much. Quit worrying about it.

I don’t see anything in the 2nd Amendment that says you can’t shoulder a stabilizing brace

Exactly... I go another step and line my braces with pubic hairs from unicorn vaginas... That way instead of accidentally shouldering the brace... I just get a "stickle" and a "tickle" from a furry "snooch"...

That looks like an awesome setup. 10/10 would shoulder.
