Brace Ban

[Jaybird1980]

My bad, I meant to ask Rookie. I'll stop being lazy and look it up.

It extends. While blades are legal, supposedly to brace your arm against the blade, this thing has some real estate on the back of it. I'm coming in cold here, but I would say they're calling this a stock because it can be 'easily' shouldered. I'll look and see what they have to say.

Exactly how does the ATF know who owns such a weapon?

The same way they hunted down fostech and black aces owners. Starts at the origin 4473.

Shouldering a brace is completely legal and acceptable.

I meant I'll look in the thread. I don't have ATF contacts.

Yes, shouldering a brace is legal. Let's call it a brace.

Is this the brace that telescopically extends? If it's the one I'm thinking of maybe that's what makes it proprietary.

What makes it proprietary is the extension arms interface with the receivers. Lots of pdw style braces use the same style of adjustment.

The actual letter is still sealed, some industry guys mention that it flirts with the maximum length of pull.

I'm wondering what their beef is about it. Maybe it's scary.

For now...

LOP is a hard number and measurable.

The blades on my pistols can't be adjustable. I had to put locktite on my knurled screw to be legal.

The tube has dimples, and I can permanently fix it at any length. Max length is in spec. But I can't have the ability to adjust it on the fly.

Thanks, I wasn't sure if it possibly extended to far.

Here's that screw I can't adjust.

No you didn't. All of the modern braces are adjustable without tools. Sba3 is probably the best selling brace and it uses a standard buffer.

I can't keep up with them. At one time, it was to be permanently affixed, so I had to locktite the screw.

I think that was tribal knowledge and wrong. You can buy thumb screws for that brace. The reason it was wise is those can Backout fairly easy and it can slide forward unexpectedly

 

[Sigblitz]

Maybe it's not supposed to be permanently affixed. I try to stay in the lines. I can't even remember I got rid of those last week.

How can a pistol have a LOP? LOP= distance from trigger to back of stock. Pistols dont have a stock.

 

[Sigblitz]

Maybe I had to use blue locktite so it isn't permanent.

If I went back in time to a week ago and checked the threads, all I would find is oil on the threads. Imagine my confusion.
