HUNTINGTON — West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey is leading a coalition of more than 20 state AGs and other parties in a lawsuit against U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and ATF Director Steven Dettelbach that seeks to enjoin a recently issued final rule governing “Stabilizing Braces,” commonly known as pistol braces.
The "Factoring Criteria for Firearms with Attached Stabilizing Braces" would subject braced pistols to regulations in the National Firearms Act that regulate rifles.
