At some point, a person has to choose their battles.
I don't have a brace on my 10 in 300 blk. No foregrip, No handstop. Military iron sights. Basic.minimalist AR pistol.
I'm not trying to get away with anything. I don't want an NFA weapon. I don't care if the $200 is waived. I don't want to sign up.
I think,at this point,I'm legal.
But I'd be at the mercy of everyone with authority that may be misinformed or interpret vague law differently than I do. Like the old defensive driving slogan "You can be dead right" . No,I'm not the "Test case Patriot" Sorry.
I just don't want to play the game. Lawyers are expensive.
So I just ordered a 16 in 300 Blk bbl. I'll take a pic to document it was first a pistol. Then I will retrofit it to being a 16 in carbine.
I can live with it. Now I am free to mount a 3X Burris short eye relief scope.
Its not what I originally wanted. This whole ATF/ AR pistol/ Brace/ potential legal trouble swamp thing is a source of stress Im just tired of thinking about.
I'm going to whistle "Don't Worry,be happy!" and let it go.
If and when SCOTUS puts the ATF an a short leash, I'll revisit the idea.
Life is pretty good. I'll be OK. I don't think I'll need grief counseling.
A range trip... Maybe a little ice fishing... A 6 pak of PBR ,,,
