Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, discusses a common question we have been getting lately in regards to ATF’s New Rule on Pistol Stabilizing Braces, which is “why don’t I just go ahead and fill out a Form 1 now and get this over with?” Is that a viable option? Is there really any way to avoid this huge headache? Does a preemptive registration save the day for you? Probably not but you need to understand why so that you can start making some educated decisions. Learn more and arm yourself with education today.

If filing a Form 1 you are seeking to manufacture an SBR via changing the brave to stock, so why can you not use the pistol in its current form until Form 1 approved? Of course having the stock already could be constructive possession blah blah.
Unconstitutional never comply ever
MASS NON-COMPLIANCE equals Problem solved!
What they don't know doesn't hurt them
Glad I found your channel. Thanks for the content.
Thank you for the advise.
Thanks for your analysis Boss.
Do not comply. Gun laws are unconstitutional and a violation of our rights and more importantly their oaths.
What's the point on putting the Brace back on can't you just put on a regular butt stock since it registered as a sbr?
👍👍👍💀
So if u get arrested and go to court how would you get a person off the hook for having a pistol brace . I would like to see that video.
Braces are a bigger issue, unless you have reason to be worried about the solvents and and triggers. Both the solvents and triggers are scarier for those in it, but the braces are bigger in scope.
What if you keep everything but the brace. I use just the tube but add a Holosun sight, with a magnifier, and flip up back up sights. Pretend your am using a standard rifle buffer tube. no stock no brace of any kind? Do you have to even worry about this? Ke4ep the brace buried and wait for the courts to fix this.
heh you said 'circling back'
Why would anyone register a totally legal to own firearm?? I know everyone bought these legally so let’s own them FREELY!! Do not nor never comply with fake regulations!! If everyone complied then the fake rule would be considered past practice and there for stand!!
If anyone complies with this they are foolish! You need to understand that they are chipping away at the stone which is the 2nd amendment. Give an inch they’ll take a mile and then some. This needs to stop with all of us. Not sure some people understand what the 2nd amendment truly means. Because….let’s be honest, if people truly understood…..we wouldn’t even be at this point with it all.
OFF TOPIC:
HUGE 2A WIN! Part of 4473 Ruled Unconstitutional!! Guns & Gadgets
Would you address this question based on the Texas court response to 4473?
I usually agree with William but I have 3 Suppressors, a concealed carry permit, 1 friend, no heirs, and a full time job. I'm registering mine as an SBR and paying my $200. I'm going to put a real stock, a suppressor, and probably an optic on it. Not going to wait and get caught in the amnesty quagmire.
I notice one of the prerequisites on the pistol brace form is that the weapon in question weights 64 oz.
So if less than that no prob?
i’m thinking about finding a constitutional attorney and putting one on retainer for this very issue….i just can not give up my God given rights…when i worked oilfield i worked with radioactive materials as well as explosives and background checks use to be a yearly thing…but after 9-11 it was every six months and it seemed like every agency was represented the atf because of explosives the nrc and epa because of the radioactive material the fbi because of domestic terrorism threats 🙄 it was maddening
Why has no one sued the atf for this? If they have not already
