      current ATF wait time

      If a weapon begins it's life as a rifle, it can not be remade as a pistol, it can only become a Short Barreled Rifle. If it begins its life as a pistol, it can change back and forth. The ATF doesn't have to cross reference, the Bushmaster XM-15 E2S was never offered as a pistol.

      current ATF wait time

      It will be denied because this was an "amnesty" free submission, which was supposed to be only for braced pistols and not pre-existing rifles. Either way, the 80-day window is fast approaching where it will automatically be denied.

      current ATF wait time

      I screwed up and submitted a lower that began its life as a rifle instead of a stripped lower. I will resubmit and pay the $200.

      current ATF wait time

      Submitted 2 "free" forms on Feb 21st. One is still in "Pending Research" and one I expect to be outright denied (to later be submitted w/ $200 tax) is still "Submitted/In Process".

      Update to ATF 5320.23 Paperwork

      I sent an email to 199Trust to be sure. Still have a bunch of other things to get together like fingerprints and photos. The photo of the weapon will have it in its original rifle configuration with the SBR upper separate and above the rifle. They aren't gonna get me on a pre-emptive illegal...

      Update to ATF 5320.23 Paperwork

      I am trying to fill one of these out for my trust and the Section 6, Questions a & b have me confused. Am I supposed to answer Yes or No to these? a. Do you intend to make any firearm listed on this form for sale for other disposition to any person described in questions 6.b through 6.l, or a...

      ATF pistol brace amnesty vs. MD law

      In the end, none of this will matter as the courts will strike this down as being in violation of Supreme Court case law. In the mean time, I have 2 lowers I wanted to SBR eventually anyway, so why not take advantage of the 120 day FREE registration? I can spend that $400 on ammo.

      5CA invalidates ATF bump stock rule

      As much as the idea of this seems wonderful, I fear it would lead to an even more stringent GCA or even an Amendment revising the 2A itself. No doubt suppressors should be OTC with a 4473. I would also like to see SBR/SBS/AOWs go away or have the barrel length reduced to something more...

      New Sig P320-XTEN

      There have been some magazine issues, but many of them vanish with some break-in time. Other than that, the only issues have been some dangerous game solids that were loaded just a tad longer than 10mm spec. Pewtuber vids have all been super positive w/ LWR & Chuke finding out about the...

      It was added at least two weeks ago.

      New Sig P320-XTEN

      I was all set to start looking for a S&W when this happens. Now, the roster question...is this a paperwork submission for a new caliber since the P320 45acp is already there, or is it a brand new model called "X-Ten" requiring a sample to be submitted? Now if HK will only come out with a VP10...
