The ATF at its finest logic.

With that logic, firing a rifle without it against your shoulder means it's a pistol.
Good work guys. Once again, our tax dollars are hard at work.

Jesus christ. Why is there a fucking NFA in the first place, if all of these moronic bureaucrats are going to change their opinions every ten minutes?

Ehh, it was fugly anyway.

Am I missing something? Aren't any shotgun under 18 inch barrel considered a sbr?

[GhostTX]

Curious how many bureaucrats in the ATF even shoot?

Are there any shotguns that are manufactured as "pistol"?

Any smooth bore pistol would have to be an AOW, only exception is the FP-45 as it's a C&R and maybe some of the very old revolvers are exempted. The 'Judge' and other like revolvers all have rifling.

I wanted to say that originally but since I don't agree with nfa shit in general I dont condone them regulating anything.

Same, I'm only angry because they are regulating something that was previously ok, but now somehow it is not. Bureaucratic magic!

I am not sure I follow your logic. The weapon in question was a short barrel shotgun, thus an AOW. Adding a SIG brace and foregrip does not magically make it non-AOW.

The ATF ruling implies that the SIG brace is NOT a stock and can't be used for one for the purpose of making a NFA item a non-NFA item.

This doesn't account for the stupid law California has on the "Judge" its insane. They classify it as a shotgun and not legal because of the short barrel.
