What is the last gun that you bought?

So you made an SBR out of it. Hope you paid the tax.

No, he didn't. He put an forearm brace on it, not a shoulder stock. The ATF has already ruled, following a dustup over the then-new SiG Brace, that affixing such a device to a handgun does not turn it into a rifle.

For a while there, the ATF held a stance that, if the firearm with such a stock was shouldered like a rifle, it became a SBR and would therefore be subject to the NFA restrictions. However, the ATF has since backed down from that.

In a nutshell, what it would take to make a forearm brace-equipped handgun into a rifle would be to modify the manner of the brace's attachment to facilitate shoulder-firing, and making the modification in such a way that shoulder-firing becomes the only practical way to operate the firearm, that its primary purpose is to exist as a rifle.

@Kaeto nope, not a stock just a KAK brand brace. Although I agree that it is the best looking brace out there, closest you can get to a stock for the price. All legal, no stamps required (except for the suppressor)

That so-called brace looks more like a stock.

It does indeed, and it's quite possible that the makers of these braces know they'll likely be used as stocks from time to time, and bank on that making them easier to sell.

For the time being, however, they remain "braces", and are not subject to the NFA restrictions.
 
@rws_53 where did you get the pistol rack? I like the gray, most I see are black.

Google Hyskore 30058 for the 7 gun stackable rack or Hyskore 30073 for the 4 gun stackable rack....prices vary from place to place with some offering FREE shipping. Note: the 4 place rack is not listed on the Hyskore web site any more but is still available from other sellers.
 
S&W model 10-5, 4" barrel. 1975 vintage.


Some light speckles of rust and holster wear, but that's fine; it was reflected in the asking price. Mechanically fit and sound. Should be a good little shooter.
