Have a single-shot, bolt action pistol with a 10-1/2" barrel, that currently has a wood pisto grip stock. Caliber is 22 Magnum.
Can I legally add a chassis with a brace? Will I have to make sure I stay under the 26" length and u der a certain weight? Or is it good to go regardless? For reference, the pistol is a Chipmunk Hunter Pistol. Looks like someone else thought of the same thing as me already, but wanted to make sure it would be okay in CT here. Thanks!

Quote HistoryQuoted: Yes but he should be fine not trying to make an Other, an Other is to get around assault features, this is a bolt action Thanks for confirming I'm an idiot

Wasn't sure what the legality of adding a pistol brace to an existing pistol was. Like if I need to worry about the OAL or total weight. |

I'm not a lawyer, but I don't know of any CT restrictions on bolt action firearms other than magazine capacity, which should mean abide by federal laws and you're all set.

why wouldn't a short barreled bolt action rifle be treated same as a short barreled shotgun? I thought the ATF "problem" has always been the short barrel concealability (for long arms).

From what I understand the OP has a pistol not a long gun and is adding a "brace" not a "stock", so not a SBR
