Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main issue with ATF's stance on pistol braces?

The ATF has issued conflicting documents regarding pistol braces. While some models were previously approved, recent statements suggest only specific SB Tactical models (SB15, MPX PSB) are considered legal braces, with others potentially being classified as illegal stocks, turning pistols into Short Barreled Rifles (SBRs).

How many firearm owners might be affected by the ATF's pistol brace ruling?

Millions of AR/AK pistols have been sold with pistol braces over the last five years. If these braces are reclassified as illegal stocks, a significant number of owners could inadvertently be in violation of the National Firearms Act (NFA).

What are some examples of the ATF's confusing firearm classifications?

The ATF has humorously depicted classifications where a 1911 with a stock is an SBR, a Glock with a vertical foregrip is an 'Any Other Weapon' (AOW), an AR15 pistol with a brace is a 'Handgun', and a pistol brace itself is a 'Machine Gun'.

Why are ammunition prices currently so high?

High ammunition prices are attributed to shortages of essential components like primers and powders, coupled with unprecedented demand throughout the year. This makes finding affordable target practice ammunition difficult.
