SECOND INJUNCTION on Pistol Brace Rule: But there IS A Catch! Second Amendment Foundation v ATF

NEW UPDATE! May 25th, 2023!

Ex-Prosecutor Tom Grieve gives you the top “gotta knows!” for the pistol brace D day coming up.

From Tom: Guys, my office has been flooded with question. While I think all of the issues that I keep seeing I have addressed separately, I wanted to 1) bring you an update from the ATF (see the video); & 2) make a mega video with all of the FAQs in one place.

Covered:

Can I just take the pistol brace off of the firearm and be fine? (Maybe yes… maybe no… see video)

If I take the brace off of the pistol, do I need to be worried about being prosecuted? (Maybe yes… maybe no… see video)

Can I put a 16" or longer barrel on my pistol & leave the brace on? (Yes, but you still need overall length of 26” or greater & be careful how your jurisdiction takes these measurements)

IF I register the weapon via eform 1: can I unregister the sbr later & convert it back to a "normal" pistol? (Yes)

IF I register the weapon via eform 1: can I switch other uppers? (Yes… BUT see video)

IF I register the weapon via eform 1: what legal problems & traps do I need to know about? (many: travel, sales, “co-dominion” possession, etc)

IF I register the weapon via eform 1: can I use a NFA gun trust? (Most likely no: you will need to eform 1 to yourself as an individual, then form 4 to your trust later upon return of form 1)

Can I possess a pistol & unattached “stabilizing brace”?
An NFA firearm need not be assembled to be regulated as such. Whether a person may be in constructive possession of an NFA firearm depends on the facts of a particular case.
