mp510, legally speaking, I don't think you're just a mere "ordinary person;" being that you have an in-depth understanding of the law. Not to mention discussing said law-- and firearms in general --on THR.
But, yea, I didn't realize the ban covered simply owning the parts. I assumed it was like the old Fed or Cali bans where there was a limit on the number of spooky features that could be installed. That does change things quite a bit. But, then again, that kind of just makes it more arbitrary.
Is there any legal way to change the length after receiving it if one realizes it's too long or short? E.G., getting a gunsmith fix it, sending it back to the factory, etc.. Being that it's still essentially a telescopic stock (only with a pin in it), and assuming there's a legal way for someone to adjust it, should it not be reasonable for an ordinary person to think they can take it apart and change it at home as long as they re-pin it?
Or for that matter, say someone bought a stock pinned to its longest setting, tried it, then sent it back out of state to be shortened. If an LEO or a busybody at the range noticed the difference, might this possibly encourage arbitrary enforcement?
Bear in mind, I'm not arguing with you here. Just trying to think of an something to use in a Federal court if and when incorporation is on the table.
