Comments now Opened to ATF on Pistol Braced Gun Ban

I strongly agree that it’s a personal choice for each individual whether or not to sign a petition of any kind. I was once one that feared signing, thinking that “then I’ll be known, etc.” Now I’m of the same thoughts expressed in the poem below:

“FIRST THEY CAME By Martin Niemöller

First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me.”

I feel that If people don’t speak out to the government concerning any overreach, it will affirm to them they have the right to do so, and they will continue to take from and restrict their fellow citizens. This isn’t just for firearms or the 2nd amendment, but on any rights or injustices. It’s been said that the Founding Fathers didn’t write the Bill of Rights for the people, as these rights were inherent to all individuals. They wrote them to document the inherent rights the government can not infringe upon.

Thanks BET7,
I know the poem well, thanks for posting, sharing with others and reminding me.
 
The GunZoneDeals website Blog had this interesting article explaining the recent ATF "Pistol Brace" ban proposal.

ATF Brace Ban Explained

Under this proposed ATF Brace Ban, in order to qualify as a firearm suitable for use with a stabilizing brace, it must weigh at least 64 ounces/4 pounds, unloaded, and have an overall length between 12 and 26 inches. We encounter the first confusion requirement at this time, as it is unclear...

So what happens to all those folks that have a Saint or other manufacturer with brace after comment closing in September? Are they instant felons or is there a period of time they have to submit a Form 1?

Those of us with pistol braces installed on pistols will have to wait on the ATF after they review the comments on all new proposals they sent out (pistol braces, Ghost gun / new Receiver definition, etc.). They can either say that due to comments and other considerations, they are dropping the proposal (much like they did with the Green Tip 556 ammo ban, proposed under the Obama administration). Or they can say they will be implementing these proposals and give more information at that time (like how long you have to either turn in/destroy the brace if never installed on a pistol, or turn in/destroy the firearm if it was preinstalled when you bought it. The alternative will be to SBR it, and they'll provide information on how long you have to do this).
So after the comment requests are closed, part 1 of the ATF proposal is complete. Next will be what they decide to do after supposedly reviewing said comments. I'm sure if they go ahead with them, lawsuits from gun organizations would then be filed. I know some U.S. Representatives and Senators have sent letters to the ATF and Justice Dept., asking why they are doing this, including to cease and desist, citing they don't have the constitutional right to rewrite laws on the books if that's what is perceived they are doing, etc.
So fun times to come I'm sure.
