The Brace Issue

 You know, the brace that some folks put on their pistols to make them fore accurate?  Yeah, those braces.  It seems that the ATF has once again changed its mind, and wants them regulated.  As in, buy a stamp.

Owners will be faced with two choices, GOA warns, “Give the ATF your name, Social Security number, address, phone number, email, payment information, FINGERPRINTS, as well as the make, model, and serial number of your firearm – and provide photographic evidence of your compliance OR Face jail time and pay a $250,000 fine.”

That ain't much of a choice.  

I have a better idea.  When the Republicans take Congress, simply repeal all federal firearms laws, going back to the turn of the last century.  Repeal them all.  Make the ATF the department of AT, and don't worry about firearms.  All of those ATF assholes can regulate Alcohol and Tobacco.  Until we get tired of them futzing with our drinks and our smokes, and we can just repeal those laws too.

Not only is this rule stupid, it isn't workable.
The current NFA registry is a couple million weapons and transfers take months to years - adding between 7 and 40 million more weapons would paralyse the system for years, if not a decade.

Simply Buy another upper with at least a 16in ch barrel and put the short barrel in storage. If it is not attached to a lower with a brace it does not violate the law.
