Does anyone think the federal alphabets know they have zero standing or respect among average American citizens? Wonder if anyone of them look themselves in the mirror and ask, “What was I thinking when I chose a career path of shit.” Don”t look now ATF but everyone’s laughing.

The ATF should have been in Chicago this weekend. 10 dead and 37 wounded. At one scene there were 7 shot. One of them died. 100 shell casings on the street! Guess I won’t be carrying my 5 shot snubby much any more.

If your accurate with that snubby, that is all that matters.

Tom, can’t reload the snubby that fast. 100 shell casings. It was a target rich environment and only 7 shot. Lot of lead flying around. Probably several shooters.

Shell casings are one way forensics finds the shooter; most of us press rounds into the mag leaving a perfect fingerprint and DNA. Load all your cleaned rounds into mags with latex gloves. The snubby of course makes this a moot point.

The pistol brace trap seems like it was put in place well over a decade ago. When The Brace became available-after AR pistols got to be a thing and everyone knew that a regular buffer tube and a stock made your pistol into an SBR and either required a tax stamp or hefty lawyer fees and some jail time-so then buffer tubes were “modified” so that regular butt stocks couldn’t be used on them and then pistol braces came along. Clearly the braces enabled some shooters with disabilities to then be able to manage an AR, and gave everyone the ability to strap the to the shooter’s forearm-hence the name “stabilizing brace”. Very quickly one heard tell that if you have an AR pistol with a stabilizing brace pressed to your shoulder the weapon had become a de-facto SBR, and you would be subject to arrest, fines and imprisonment. Then there were assertions that that wouldn’t get you in trouble, and then again, that it would. And, as with all things tax stamped, being in possession of a short barreled upper and no pistol lower was constructive intent (like the solvent trap) and would also make one subject to persecution. I believe in the letter and in the spirit of “shall not be infringed”, but I could see that stabilizing brace issue blowing up at some point, and so I personally steered clear of the potential trap. It is obvious that the Obammy-trained heads of the alphabet agencies are very hip to finding cracks in the law, shadows in The Constitution of the FUSA, and inventing “rules” by which legal persecution of their self-declared enemies can be instigated and pursued with vigor. I believe one of them bureaucrats somewhere, knew that one day The Brace would be an issue that they would exploit. And just like radical, leftist school boards that try to outlaw The Bible based on “explicit and violent content” as retribution for being told that they may not push homosexual pornography on minors, fedgov stooges and AGW’s will use any angle to persecute Christians, The Right, patriots and anyone that doesn’t live and breathe to suffer communist totalitarianism. Out.
