Irish-Pat Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 What does everyone plan to do? I just saw that the Supreme Court ruled that Trump’s ban on bump stocks was unconstitutional. Now the ATF wants to punish gun owners and veterans with disabilities. Quote Link to comment
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 It's real simple. Those "flaky" Stabilizers do create a SBR. Butt stocks attached to modern handguns under a specific barrel length have been verboten for decades. Quote Link to comment

Michigan Slim Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I have a .300 kit that was given to me. I never put it together as I don't have a need for it. It's just going to sit there in the box. Quote Link to comment
Rip Snorter Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Actually someone who is handicapped and finds them useful should file suit. Americans with Disabilities. 2 Quote Link to comment
Dantankerous Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 BATFE does not make laws. This will be litigated and eventually braces found to be just fine as they should be. 2 Quote Link to comment

Butt stocks attached to modern handguns under a specific barrel length have been verboten for decades. SCOTUS will eventually have to grant cert for a bump stock case & braces. Even if the Feds don't appeal the 5th circuit ruling. There are 2 other circuits that have agreed with the BATF's rule that BS's are machine guns. In WV vs. EPA SCOTUS stated that Dementia's EPA Clean Power Plan didn't comply with clean air laws. They stated the rule was legislation and since legislation is an Article power. Article I is text that lists the form & powers of the legislative branch of our 3 branch federal government. There are many BATF regulations & determinations that are standing on quicksand since John Roberts became Chief justice. His court has shown interest in narrowing the Chevron Deference doctrine. Since ACB replaced the Notorious RBG he has 5 fellow justices who don't believe in an all powerful state. With WV & Bruen there are a lot of laws & regulations that are on shaky ground. There is a trial court case in the South where the judge tossed a felon's charge of possessing a firearm with serial no. removed. The stated reason is the GCA is valid under Congress's power to regulate commerce and the defendant wasn't engaging in commerce by merely possessing a firearm. 2 Quote Link to comment

Lone Spur Jake SASS #7728 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 ATF stepped on their foot when they later said that it "was ok to put a pistol brace firearm against your shoulder." Originally they said it was "not legal to put a pistol brace against your shoulder." Now, they say it will not be legal, unless registered as an SBR, to have a firearm with a barrel less than 16" that can be put against your shoulder when firing the firearm. 1 Quote Link to comment

Buckshot Bob Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 2 hours ago, Crooked River Pete, SASS 43485 said: That puts a wrinkle in things, and not that I like taxes but what gives the ATF the authority to suspend the $200 dollar tax? Congress imposed it, aren’t they the only ones who can repeal the tax? Are they going to change their mind after everything is done “like they already did with the pistol brace rule” and send everyone a $200 bill ? What government agency wouldn’t want that money? Plus it’s another way to punish the law abiding citizens, and we know they take great pleasure in doing that. if you don’t pay I guess that makes you a felon going to prison? This just stinks in soooo many ways 2 Quote Link to comment
Texas Joker Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 It would seen to me that the tax is a fatal flaw in that legislation. Shall not be infringed? Very narrow scope of interpretation now. And the taxing of a Right is not allowed. I have always said if you replace the word firearm with vote in all of these regulations there would be no question that they are un constitutional.
