ATF Brace Proposal Goes Live, 14 Days to Comment
Federal regulators on Friday set off the starting pistol in the race to establish what stabilizing brace makers term the largest firearm registration scheme in American history.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives scheduled its proposed 15-page “
Objective Factors for Classifying Stabilizer Braces” to publish Dec. 18 in the Federal Register, the official journal of the federal government, for public inspection. Americans have two weeks to provide feedback on the plan, which could be the last chance to make their voice heard on the issue before ATF moves forward.
"The document is a thinly veiled blueprint for the largest firearm registration--and ultimately potentially confiscation-- scheme in U.S. history," said SB Tactical, the inventor of the modern stabilizing brace, in a response.
