Frequently Asked Questions

What is the ATF's current stance on pistol braces?

The ATF is proposing to reclassify firearms equipped with stabilizing braces as Short-Barreled Rifles (SBRs). This would subject them to NFA regulations, including registration and a $200 tax stamp, though an amnesty period is being offered to allow for compliance.

What are the options for individuals who own firearms with pistol braces?

Owners can turn in the firearm with the brace to the ATF, convert it into a rifle with a barrel of 16 inches or longer, register it under the NFA, or remove and destroy the stabilizing brace to avoid reclassification.

What is the ATF's concern regarding forced reset triggers and solvent traps?

The ATF is reportedly targeting individuals who purchased forced reset triggers, classifying them as machine guns, and solvent traps, viewing them as suppressor parts, despite current legal classifications. This has led to increased enforcement actions.

What are the key features of the new FN 509CC Edge pistol?

The FN 509CC Edge is a 9mm compact carry pistol that is optics-ready and features a compensator designed to reduce recoil. It also boasts a hammer-forged barrel and a quick-detach compensator system.
