[QUOTE="mightymouse, post: 3959927, member: 15253"] As many of you know, the ATF has ruled that those AR-15 pistols equipped with stabilizing braces are now short barreled rifles. ATF rule 2021R-08F went into effect one minute after midnight on Jan 31, 2023. After that date, [I]no unregistered short barreled rifle (SBR) can be transferred (sold) to anyone for any reason[/I], per the ATF. There is a grace period, lasting until May 31, 2023, to do something with those short barreled rifles. There are five possible options for possessors of such weapons. (1) Said weapon can be registered with the ATF as an SBR, (2) the short barrel may be removed and replaced with a barrel 16 inches or longer, (3) the brace may be permanently removed and disposed of, or altered in such a way that it cannot be reattached, (4) the weapon can be turned into the ATF, or (5) the weapon may be destroyed. Again, and this is the important point, [I]an unregistered SBR cannot be transferred (sold) to anyone for any reason. Such weapons should not be listed in the OSA classifieds since they can neither be bought nor sold. [/I] (Once an SBR has been registered, it can only be transferred according to the rules for dealing with Class III weapons.) [/QUOTE]
