[QUOTE="JR777, post: 3567069, member: 45725"] It's a long convoluted story, but the short version is they're already illegal. Very early on, the ATF approved a few specific models on a few specific firearms, in a specific configuration. Then people ran with that and said oh we can now put this brace on any AR pistol and it's approved. Well, no, that's not how it works, but the manufacturers told people that. When all the ATF ever said is that in their opinion this specific brace wasn't an SBR on that specific gun, as it was configured when submitted to them. Unfortunately a lot of people in the industry pretty much lied about getting ATF approval for their products. In some cases, they got [I]denied [/I]approval, and then claimed the opposite. So what the ATF is saying is that no new laws or anything are needed, because the majority of the braced firearms out there are actually SBRs. And they have extremely good standing to argue that. Some of these newer braces I'm seeing you honestly can't even tell they're braces just by looking at them. They're basically stocks that can, in theory, fold out to be a brace. Again, the ATF nor the oval office is proposing a ban, as far as I know. They're just saying that you can't put a random brace on a random short barreled upper and automatically assume that it's legal to do so. [/QUOTE]
