Pushing the envelope on SBR regulations

[Ryanxia]

I'm glad to see items come along that challenge the status quo with regard to the NFA.

I doubt getting rid of NFA would be an easy thing to do, but I have a solution to the regulations that is simple and probably would gain traction fairly easily. Keep things as they are now with one exception, which would be letting Class 3 dealers handle the paperwork/fees/issuing of tax stamps. These businesses are already highly regulated and are well versed in selling Class 3 items so there is no real need for any additional training or work. Everyone wins this way. We don't have to wait 6 to 9 months for an SBR/suppressor/etc. (if we can pass a background check to buy a gun that day, how is a Class 3 item any different?), the business and manufacturers will enjoy increased sales of these items, and the government will still get their $200 per stamp. Tax stamp revenues would likely increase significantly with the influx of new Class 3 buyers. I know quite a few people who would buy a suppressor or an SBR if it wasn't for the convoluted process we have now.

That actually seems like a pretty good idea. Like you said, no waiting time so increased revenue from the additional people doing them. Unless there's any draw backs that we're not thinking of I know my Class 3 dealer would be all over it. Think of how many more rifles you would SBR if it was as easy as picking up the rifle to begin with.
Kind of ironic how it takes 5 minutes (in my state) to get the rifle but more than 5 months to cut 6" off the barrel lol.

I've got almost all the parts I need for my 'AR Pistol' and I even have an ATF approval letter saying you can use an A2 buffer tube as long as the stock threads are removed.
Nice and long.

A few people have asked me for a copy of the letter stating an A2 tube with the threads removed is OK.
