The ATF Makes Millions of Pistols Illegal – New ATF Pistol Brace Rule

ByDave Timm

This I know will be an unpopular and unpleasant topic but needs to be addressed.  On January 31st The ATF published the ruling relating to pistol braced equipped firearms, there is up to an estimated 7 million of these. That is a large number that are all affected and could potentially make felons out of Americans who own these items legally, were purchased legally and are subject to this new rule.  We talk about the rule, what it affects, and the remedies one has available. 

Sound off in the comments, who has read it and what do you think?
