So if shouldering an arm brace makes it a stock does gripping the magwell make it a forward grip?
Sorry sir, the letter does not say that. It makes no reference to "the act of putting it to your shoulder".
I do think the stint of the sig brace was valuble to us nonetheless.

Like I said, somewhat on topic..... Somehow I don't see this being the test case.
. . . the ATF tried to make their claim that a vertical foregrip constituted an AOW and the court threw out the charge (U.S. v. Davis, Crim No. 8:93-106 (D.S.C. 1993) ).
yes the number of people Ive met who actually know what SBR even means now is much much larger. I think we just have to get the right timing and keep educating people, and definately length laws and hopefully silencers will be deregulated.Quote:

Oh, I do too! I think each of these little squalls both raises awareness in our community and also pushes us inevitably closer to positive legislative action on the NFA. Not today or tomorrow, but if our momentum holds and the right legislator pushes the right bill, we'll see SBRs and SBSs and silencers out of federal registration.
I don't see "intent" as "the name of the game" at all.Since intent seems to be the name of the game, we should be able to add a Magpul STR stock as a balancing item to a pistol still intended and designed to be fired one handed.
Not really. Again, the definition of an SBR includes "designed or re-designed" to be fired from the shoulder. If you're doing something with that gun to let you fired it from the shoulder ... BINGO.Since it's designed to be fired one handed and not shoulder fired, it shouldn't be considered an SBR right?
I assume you're just being silly here. You think the Court is going to quibble about where exactly your "shoulder" stops and your "chest" begins? Why waste the effort on such trivia?Second, if someone tucks a Sig brace to their chest (not shoulder) then they should be in the clear right?
