An estimated 10-40 million braces have been manufactured and distributed to Americans legally. This “rule” would make those that purchased them and are in possession of them legally, a felon without Congress ever enacting a law as the founding fathers intended. A federal agency should not be able to pass laws without the representatives that were elected BY THE PEOPLE being involved. PERIOD.

If these changes are allowed to pass, it will (most likely) be the end of the 2nd as we know it. If they get an inch today they will take a mile next week. When the Government wants to take something "Gun Related" away from Law Abiding Citizens, It just means that they want to do something to "US" that will require something "Gun Related" to Stop....Last edited by coker737; 01-29-2023, 07:22 AM.

Do you want me to look up the NFA law to show you that a short barrel rifle is a crime?
It is not a matter of agreeing with it or being unconstitutional. At this moment it is the current law and it was defined by the United States Congress.

Originally posted by Gunnyart View PostAlso Just learned BATF has changed their policy on allowing anyone not listed as the registered owner possessing your NFA item.
Now letting someone even in your direct presence possess it i.e. let them "try it out" is a felony.
They take it a step further to include "constructive possession" i.e. you set it down on a bench between you, they could theoretically be considered "in possession".
And you as the registered person making it available could also be charged.

Originally posted by canny View PostThis…you are essentially “telling” on yourself that you possess it and hoping they get your background check done in 88 days. Then if you are denied ATF has already made public comment that they will take enforcement action. I don’t have a dog in the fight but it’s a hot mess that does not favor the firearm owners. Hopefully someone can get it stopped before anything happens.
