AR pistols- new proposed rule -> SBR

Wrong. ATF said braces were legal. What was up in the air was the legality of how they were used. Now they want a second bite at the apple on design. That ship sailed. People bought legal braces. Now ATF wants to call them illegal.

This. I have started to compose a draft on my comments to ATF. And this sums up the issue succinctly. They said it was legal. Now you want to make Felons of millions of American who were good faith acting in compliance to that? Doesnt matter that it was often a back-door NFA circumvention - if the agency in question expressly and by action deemed that it was not.

Going forward, I get saying hey we need to reevaluate- but you cant screw over the millions who already bought and dont check the FEDERAL registry every week for updates.
