    Gunsmithing What legally constitutes a pistol brace?

    There is no federal requirement. However, the determination letter makes any type of prosecution later on very hard for the federal government. It is all about risk management for the manufacturer.

    Gunsmithing What legally constitutes a pistol brace?

    "Can I legaly transform a stock into a pistol brace?" Short answer: No. "Specifically I'm talking about the MPA CSR stock I would like to use for that matter." The CSR is a chassis and the stock that comes with it is just that. If you want to use that chassis and stock combo with a > 16"...

    PRS Talk barrel length of bolt action 308

    As LEO, you likely don't need the added length since you typically shoot/engage no farther than 300 yards. As long as the loss of fps doesn't effect your projectile's terminal performance (i.e. expansion and penetrating through other objects) and you correct your dope there is no serious...

    I forgot to mention and agree with the above poster as far as repeatability between the mounting options.

    Suppressors SlencerCo Omega 300 and using the ASR mount VS direct thread

    I use it on my bolt gun as a direct thread with minimal POI shift, however, I have to check it every once in while to make sure it is still secured. I also use it on my ARs (large and small platform) with the ASR muzzle brake and never have any issues with it ever loosening. It is an awesome can...

    Gunsmithing Bedding the recoil lug, stuck

    Freezing works best. I used a can of compress air, the kind you use to clean keyboards. It lowers the temperature a bit more than a normal freezer will be able to and it is easier/faster. Turn the can upside down and blast the area around the lug and action until good and cold--be careful you...

    Suppressors Steps to a nfa trust purchase!!!!

    All I am saying is that this type of behavior is legal quicksand. Personally, I would never have a gun dealer give me any type of legal advice. While they might be well intentioned with what they are doing; I question their motives.

    Suppressors SBR engraving

    It is surprising that you think you actually know what you are talking about based upon a some letter you say you received from ATF. As others have stated, that letter has no legal authority and is only an opinion based upon a specific question that you asked. As an individual making a Title I...

    Suppressors Steps to a nfa trust purchase!!!!

    Do they create the trusts themselves or do they have a lawyer do it? For $25 I highly doubt a lawyer is involved in the process. I'm pretty sure it is illegal--or at the very least regulated by the bar association--in Arizona to be practicing law without a license. I would definitely have it...

    Suppressors Question Regarding Residency and Surppressor Purchasing

    How is it safer to register as a trust than an individual? You are no less legally culpable if anything illegal may happen with the firearm. Trusts are meant for estate planning and holding property and regardless of how the attorney words the document there are no legal securities that might...

    He probably meant "specialist", there are approximately six that work exclusively for NFA. However, none of them specialize in a particular type of firearm and only one or two of them know what they are actually talking about.

    The ATF revised their definition of a silencer in response to individuals making unregistered silencers from parts they bought at gun shows.

    Suppressors Mohawk armory make sure and look at this post before you make a decision

    I don't understand your logic. You pay the tax for the transfer of the NFA firearm and not the tax stamp itself. If the transfer never took place you request a refund for the tax. You have three years to request a refund, as long as you turn in the original tax form (stamp) and the firearm never...

    Suppressors Mohawk armory make sure and look at this post before you make a decision

    While I can see some truth to your statement, I still have two (personal) tax stamps for firearms that I have since sold and transferred to other individuals. What really matters, at least to the ATF and other LEs, is what is in the NFA's National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record...

    Suppressors Silenced America...anybody heard from those guys lately?

    Next time you call the NFA branch to check on the status of your transfer application, ask them the received date of the transfer. The "pending" date is when the application was entered into the database and nothing more. More often than not, when a check is cashed months down the road: a) the...
