Pistol braces are designed to allow users to shoot large-format pistols one-handed.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

President Biden likes to call the \u201cgun violence\u201d problem in the United States a \u201cnational embarrassment.\u201d But you know what\u2019s really <\/em>a national embarrassment? The ATF\u2019s handling of the \u201carm brace\u201d issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gun owners feel like Charlie Brown trying to kick Lucy\u2019s football. The ATF has issued multiple \u201crulings\u201d only to reverse course a few years later. In the latest back and forth, the agency declared<\/a> in October that arm braces transform a large-format pistol into a short-barreled rifle only to rescind that ruling and promise further clarification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When they released that \u201cclarification,\u201d the document was so vague and unclear the agency was forced to rescind<\/a> that document<\/em> and wait until the Biden administration took over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now they\u2019ve officially proposed their \u201cfinal\u201d rule, and let me tell you\u2014it\u2019s just as embarrassing as everything else the ATF has cooked up, and gun owners need to make their voices heard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why the Rule is a Threat to All Gun Owners<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Arm braces were designed to allow disabled veterans to fire large-format pistols one-handed. Usually, these braces are designed for AR-platform pistols (barrel shorter than 16\u201d), and they\u2019re attached to the buffer tube that normally accepts a collapsible stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to the ATF\u2019s incompetence up to this point, millions of law-abiding gun owners purchased these arm braces with the belief that they do not magically transform an AR-pistol into a short-barreled rifle (SBR). SBRs are heavily regulated under the National Firearms Act, and possessing an unregistered SBR is a federal felony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the ATF\u2019s new proposed rule<\/a>, however, many of these arm braces will be considered gun stocks, and attaching them to an AR-pistol could land an unsuspecting gun owner in federal prison. As a group of 140 lawmakers told the ATF in a letter<\/a> dated June 14, the rule would turn millions of law-abiding citizens into felons overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe proposed guidance is alarming and jeopardizes the rights of law-abiding gun owners and disabled combat veterans across the country,\u201d write the members of Congress.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShould this guidance go into effect, a disabled combat veteran who has chosen the best stabilizing brace for their disability is now a felon unless they turn in or destroy the firearm, destroy the brace, or pay a $200 tax,\u201d they continue. \u201cFurthermore, it could make millions of law-abiding citizens felons overnight.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ATF provided an insanely unhelpful worksheet to determine whether a product is a \u201cstock\u201d or a \u201cbrace.\u201d Many braces currently on the market would likely be considered stocks when paired with most AR-pistols, but the ATF gave itself an out even if a firearm somehow managed to meet all the criteria. The new rule states that the ATF \u201creserves the right to preclude classification as a pistol with a \u2018stabilizing brace\u2019 for any firearm that achieves an apparent qualifying score but is an attempt to make a \u2018short-barreled rifle\u2019 and circumvent the GCA or NFA.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, when it comes to arm braces, the ATF will do whatever it damn well pleases\u2014and gun owners can take a hike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Our Comments Could Make a Difference<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The ATF brass doesn\u2019t care about gun owners or the Second Amendment. That much is obvious. But they\u2019re required by law to consider all valid comments when proposing a new rule, so it\u2019s critical we flood the agency with respectful, effective comments voicing our opposition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here\u2019s one reason to comment: good comments can help litigators fight the rule even after it\u2019s been adopted. According to Harvard Law School<\/a>, comments are crucial for future litigation: \u201cYour comments help create the administrative record that a federal agency or decision-maker has to consider when finalizing a rule or regulation,\u201d the law school points out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, if government agencies like the ATF fail to adequately consider public comments, a judge may invalidate the rule at a later date. In other words, if they move forward with the rule, they have to show that they\u2019ve adequately addressed the concerns of the public. With each thoughtful, well-articulated comment advancing a new argument against the rule, that becomes more difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Practices for Commenting<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First thing\u2019s fist. No profanity<\/em>. As tempting as it may be, profanity is one of the only things that will get your comment immediately disqualified, and the ATF is looking for any reason to discount as many comments as they can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your comment doesn\u2019t have to be long, but it must forward a logical argument as to why the ATF is wrong to implement this new rule for arm braces. As the Firearm Policy Coalition points out, \u201cThe more unique comments and different arguments the ATF receives, the more they will have to read and respond to (this is good)!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few examples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EFFECTIVE: \u201cAs an executive branch agency, the ATF should not be creating new laws, which is effectively what this rule does. I strongly oppose this rule\u2019s new categorization of \u2018arm brace.\u2019 Such decisions should be left to the people\u2019s representatives in Congress.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EFFECTIVE: \u201cThis rule makes it almost impossible to know whether the ATF would consider a product an \u2018arm brace\u2019 or a \u2018stock.\u2019 For example, under the first criteria, users are supposed to determine whether a brace\/stock is \u2018based on a known shoulder stock design.\u2019 It\u2019s unreasonable to expect gun owners to know that, but it\u2019s a critical part of determining the legality of a product under this new rule.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

EFFECTIVE: \u201cI\u2019m a law-abiding gun owner, but this new rule will make it impossible for me to know whether any given firearm or product is legal. I don\u2019t want to go to jail just because a product that was legal is suddenly declared illegal based on an arbitrary decision by ATF leadership. The agency said just last year that these products do not turn an AR-pistol into an SBR. I strongly oppose this new rule.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NOT EFFECTIVE: \u201cThe ATF is a Commie apparatus doing the bidding of an illegitimate president, the baby-eating Joe Biden! F— you!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
