California residents can either convert their pistol brace firearm into a compliant non-assault weapon by attaching a 16-inch or longer barrel and a stock, or they must permanently remove and disable the pistol brace so it cannot be reattached.

Are there legal challenges to the ATF's pistol brace ruling?

Yes, organizations like the Second Amendment Foundation (SAF), Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC), and Gun Owners of America (GOA) are actively pursuing legal challenges against the ATF's ruling, citing procedural flaws in their methodology.
