Angry politicians started crying foul over the Sig shoulder brace saga. July 17, 2019 Laura Widener The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) has reportedly changed a key gun measuring standard that is indirectly reclassifying popular pistols if they have a stabilizing brace and vertical foregrip. Late yesterday, I received an email from an individual containing a letter from ATF which was a response to a correspondence requesting the correct method to “measure a firearm with a ‘stabilizing brace’ and folding adaptor.” This guidance comes after a lot of quesitons as to when you could or could not put a vertical foregrip on an AR pistol.

The ATF has announced new guidance on how it will determine the overall length of AR pistols and what does or does not enter into NFA territory when is comes to pistols utilizing a stabilizing brace along with other accessories. Now, the ATF … While I love braced AR pistols and you’ll see more here soon, I think there’s a new pinnacle, one that has me thinking about selling my only SBR. We’ve covered the AR pistol vs. SBR evolution and those are some of our most read stories. Enter the pistol brace, also known as a stabilizing brace. ATF Rescinds Prior Methods to Measure a Firearm’s Overall Length when Equipped with a Stabilizing Brace Posted on July 5, 2019 July 5, 2019 by Adam Kraut, Esq. 2014: ATF rules against shouldering braces. However, the ATF used terms like incidental, sporadic, and situational; meaning essentially that your use of your AR pistol is open to the ATF’s interpretation.

In 2014, the ATF issued a memorandum stating that an AR pistol was not an SBR, even if fired from the shoulder using a brace, and there was much rejoicing.

Now, the ATF has ruled that a pistol brace cannot be held up to the shoulder. In 2014, the ATF issued a memorandum stating that an AR pistol was not an SBR, even if fired from the shoulder using a brace, and there was much rejoicing. The ATF has announced new guidance on how it will determine the overall length of AR pistols and what does or does not enter into NFA territory when is comes to pistols utilizing a stabilizing brace along with other accessories. So, the ATF released a statement that said shouldering a pistol brace would make your pistol an SBR, which is illegal: "Consequently, the attachment of the SB-15 brace to an AR-type pistol alone; would not change the classification of the pistol to an SBR. As of 2019 you are allowed to shoot an AR pistol braced on the shoulder, and should continue to be able to do so for the foreseeable future. “Any person who intends to use a handgun stabilizing brace as a shoulder stock on a pistol (having a rifled barrel under 16 inches in length or a smooth bore firearm with a barrel under 18 inches in length) must first file an ATF Form 1 and pay the applicable tax because the resulting firearm will be subject to all provisions of the NFA,” the reversed position stated. This guidance comes after a lot of quesitons as to when you could or could not put a vertical foregrip on an AR pistol. Congressmen Question ATF Brace Restriction Plans “Congressman Matt Gaetz announced … the ATF is crafting secret rules restricting the possession of certain pistol braces by American citizens, and that he has sent them a letter demanding they stop,” a June 16 Hot Take Press Room release reported.

For all practical purposes, this device allows pistols with short barrels to have something resembling a shoulder stock. Unfortunately, anti-gun groups and elected officials decided that was unacceptable, and began gnashing their teeth and rending their garments, so the ATF changed their tune.
