Quoted:
I highly doubt the timing of the ATF's SIG brace announcement is coincidental. I suspect they'll be rolling at SHOT looking for someone to make an example out of. I think that will backfire on them. Sure someone might end up taking a ride, but ATF will eventually be the ones getting their dick stomped in the dirt by yet another judge. |

It will never hold up in court. They might have the power to regulate hardware, but certainly not actions. They overstepped, and it will not work out for them. ..

In order to be convicted of something don't they have to prove your guilt? How are they going to prove something that they have no evidence of? Not illegal to put the brace on a pistol, so they got shit. Fuck them.

Someone should troll the ATF by having a registered SBR there with a sig brace that they let people shoulder.

How can they regulate someones intent who did not manufacturer the pistol? The whole jist of their letter was if you build it with the intend of an arm brace it is good to go but if you build with the intent to shoulder its not good to go. How can anyone except the manufacturer or builder be charged with an "intent " violation.

From what I've seen at how efficiently different parts of BATFE communicate with each other...
They might be trolling for brace shoulderers at SHOT 2018. 99.87% of the enforcement guys probably still don't even know what an arm brace is. |

I think if it's on a pistol it will be fine. I really believe this came about due to all the idiots writing letters about building an sbr using the brace instead of paying the tax.

No, I am saying so long as it can be used as designed it isnt a shoulder stock. It becomes a shoulder stock when you redesign a gun to incorporate the SB as a shoulder stock. A shoulder stock has a singular purpose, and that is as a shoulder stock. The sig adapter also has a singular purpose which is to be clamped onto your forearm. If you put a sig brace against your shoulder that does not make it a shoulder stock because it is an arm brace installed onto a pistol and can be used as an arm brace. The words used have a very narrow literal meaning, and people are interpreting the word shoulder stock far too broadly. A shoulder stock is a shoulder stock and an arm brace is an arm brace. An arm brace becomes a shoulder stock if it is installed and can not be used as an arm brace. Just as a baseball bat, or anything else that isnt a shoulder stock could become a shoulder stock if you fixed it to the back of a pistol for the obvious purpose of using it as a shoulder stock. There have been a bunch of people who have designed adapters for the sig brace to be used as a stock only. It becomes a stock when it can not be used as designed. You know the cheap plastic clamp on glock shoulder stocks? People have made those that incoroperate a pistol receiver extension for mounting the SB. The SB would not line up with the grip of the pistol, it could not be used as designed, thus it is a shoulder stock, because it could be used as only a shoulder stock. There have been other examples along the same line. here is an example of the sig brace being used as a shoulder stock. It is a shoulder stock because it clearly can not be used as intended.

ATF couldn't bust them at the SHOT show for that. It would make a weak case since the gun is likely to be empty (firing pins are removed) and thus the person shouldering it isn't shooting it.

I honestly don't think they care.
This ruling was probably brought about by nothing more than it becoming tiresome of writing letters about the stupid things,especially having to respond to all the idiots who wanted them ruled illegal for whatever anti-social reason those idiots have. I hardly think the courts will be running over with SIG brace prosecutions. Now,if more retards don't knock it off already then they may just ban them outright and make possession constructive intent. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |
