Is it a rifle, a shotgun, or a felony
I give it 3 months before the SC tells them no. >

Under Bruen & Heller, this should not hold up in court, but it could take years.  
However, considering that the ATF changing an interpretation of a definition (that conflicts with their previous interpretation of that same, unchanged definition) could make millions of people felons I think an injunction is likely. >

How many mass/school shootings have been committed with a pistol using a “stabilizing brace”? Or even just how many firearm-related homicides in general have been committed with one? >

Until I hear otherwise, I’ll assume the answer is zero.  Examples would have been trotted out had there been.  This rule is pure theater, and does nothing to improve public safety. >

Bingo. But hey, I get to register a lower as a sbr for free for a limited time, though. >

Doubt they'll be able to do anything after EPA v. West Virginia. They'll need an act of congress to enact it. >

From my understanding the moment they file it in the public register it is enacted and people can be prosecuted under it. It's only if a court rules that the ATF cannot do this, will it be go back to the way things were before. >


Such weapons are considered particularly deadly as they offer the power of a traditional rifle

How does a stabilization brace increase the power of a pistol to a rifle? >

It doesn’t make the projectile any more powerful or the weapons any more dangerous. This has more to do with making it less convenient to own an AR pattern pistol. >

I think it is silly to call those pistols, more like a sawed off rifle. >

It’s a really interesting thing actually. In order to effectively regulate something, you have to go to great expense in order to define what it is that you’re regulating. 
If one were to apply your logic to cannabis/hemp, there would be a ton of felons just because they went to a strip mall and bought gummies with their credit card. >

If fits the definition of a rifle though. I understand the law has nothing to do with the truth though.
Rifle
noun
a gun, especially one fired from shoulder level, having a long spirally grooved barrel intended to make a bullet spin and thereby have greater accuracy over a long distance. >

dictionary definition and legal definitions are two different things. its where things for laymen gets annoying and confusing. >

Did you just repeat what I just said? >
