That is what they are doing now with their formula. But they already said in their 2019 letter that if you have a magnified optic with restricted eye relief and that eye relief only works if its held like a rifle, then the intent is clear. That's when I parted out my Grendel "pistol".
When everyone has a chance to calm down, they should look at the actual new rule. There are few things that should be softened. One of the underlying precepts is that a handgun is designed to be shot with one hand. Which is obviously false everywhere outside of a Hollywood studio. But the ergonomics of an AR pistol don't allow it to be gripped like a Glock or a revolver. Two, having backup sites or a red dot makes it more like a rifle? Almost every handgun made in the last 100 years will have a front and rear site, and many people put red dots on them. Does putting a red dot on your G20 make it more like a rifle? How are you supposed to aim? Bring back lasers?
Let's go Brandon!
