Texas sued the federal government to block enforcement of a new rule classifying certain pistols as short-barreled rifles that must be registered. It’s just...
Millions of Americans own a firearm known as an AR-style pistol, which is modeled after popular semi-automatic rifles like the AR-15 and AK-47. And many bought a rear attachment for it called a “stabilizing brace.” This accessory resembling a rifle stock was originally designed to help those without full use of both arms fire with one hand by strapping the gun to their forearm.
The rule does not apply to stabilizing braces “objectively designed and intended as a ‘stabilizing brace’ for use by individuals with disabilities, and not for shouldering the weapon as a rifle,” according to ATF. The National Firearms Act that regulates short-barreled rifles was enacted in 1934. The NFA also restricts other weapons Congress deemed unusual and dangerous such as sawed-off shotguns, machine guns, destructive devices and silencers.
