Could ATF just make an administrative ruling which would eliminate the sale, use or even possession of slide fire stocks? From what I have read ATF has said in the past slidefire stocks are "legal" so it seems possible they could reconsider their position. The way I understand the agency they have a great amount of discretion as to how firearms laws are applied.

It looks like the NRA may have had the same thought. If they could get this put to bed with a BATF ruling instead of new legislation, that would probably be preferable. BATF has definitely been known to reverse its previous rulings--laws are not quite so easy to undo.
