And that proves my point exactly. NOWHERE in those definitions does it mention how the firearm was transferred. It is ALL about the physical attributes of the firearm. If you're saying those definitions prove your point and disprove mine then you're on some pretty serious drugs... It very plainly lays out the physical attributes that make it a rifle, SBR, or pistol. The fact that a firearm was mistakenly transferred under the wrong category on the 4473 doesn't change it's physical attributes. A pistol that has ALWAYS met the physical qualifications for a pistol from the point of manufacture all the way to the owner's hands doesn't miraculously become a rifle when the FFL checks the wrong box on the form; the physical attributes remain the same.
I'm seriously willing to learn here but if you don't have any credible evidence (as it appears you don't) then just tell us. You don't have to keep trolling. If there is no credible evidence then I'll write a clarification letter to the ATF and get the story first-hand and I'll be sure to post it up here when I get the response.
ATF Ruling 2003-308. Enjoy. I'm outtie.
