      BUMP STOCK SUIT FILED!

      How long does it take to get an "instant email response" when emailing "fipb@atf.gov"? I sent in over an hour ago. Never mind, just got it.

      Legality of shooting fox in yard

      As some have said, cats belong inside. They are the number one killer of song birds on the planet. For some reason some people think that's cute (not so much). BTW, Fox are not in season (in most parts of the state) and if you're worried, I would suggest you get DNR involved.

      current ATF wait time

      Form 1 SBR's (3ea): Mailed: July 12, 2016 Check cashed: 19 July 2016 Approved: July 18, 2017 Stamp Received: Cricket, Cricket This after playing Ping-Pong with the forms since apparently, ATF isn't allowed to find more than 1 thing wrong with your forms at a time. To be honest, I don't...

      SBR Questions for an SBR Newbie

      Lol, I gotcha, I don't see the harm either. It may not make it easier to shoulder but would arguably make it more comfortable to use (due to a more appropriate length) and "comfort to use as a shoulder stock" was a criteria called out in ATF's latest letter as I recall. Basically, their take...

      SBR Questions for an SBR Newbie

      You are correct. However, making that type of modification may create a problem is what I'm implying. Simply shouldering the brace isn't a problem but modifying the system to more easily make shouldering do-able would be (per ATF's latest letter).

      SBR Questions for an SBR Newbie

      I agree wholeheartedly as I have one and would like for that to be the case. Unfortunately, that argument would probably have to be made in court or worse yet to the ATF in the form of a (God forbid) letter.

      SBR Questions for an SBR Newbie

      Sorry, I was alluding to the ATF letter before this last one regarding the pistol brace wherein they mention that simply shouldering the brace constituted "making or re-making" the firearm into a SBR and since the OP was asking about SBR's specifically, I assumed that had he went the pistol...

      SBR Questions for an SBR Newbie

      Something to consider though, since the ATFE has had it's recent "epiphany" in regard to pistol braces, any modification to lengthen (or essentially make "more comfortable to shoot from the shoulder") such as adding the Law Tactical device would then put you squarely back into the dreaded "made...

      Diagnosing failure to eject problem in AR

      you can still "fix" the problem though. We had some factory 7.5" "Carbon 16's" that were quite the "treat". a lot of noise and a big fireball but not much in the way of performance though (but great for clearing rooms).

      Diagnosing failure to eject problem in AR

      Also, is the failing Bolt carrier an M16 weight or AR-15 weight?

      Diagnosing failure to eject problem in AR

      I agree 100% with your strategy on simplest first. experimenting with buffers would be a good option. You mentioned that your gun is a pistol, what barrel/gas length?
    13. M

      Diagnosing failure to eject problem in AR

      What buffer are you using now? There are so many things that can cause these kinds of issues, from the length of barrel in front of the gas block (dwell) to the hole in the buffer tube. If the problem went away when you swapped out the BCG, that's a good place to start obviously. I had a...

      current ATF wait time

      Submitted 3 SBR's (Paper/Trust) sent/double date stamped by the postal clerk on the last day before deadline date. Checks cashed on 19 July. Will post the results here. :fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed::fingerscrossed:

      Schedule A question

      My trust schedule "A" only has provisions for "Item/description & Serial#" and "Date Tax Stamp Issued". The "location of the trust" is listed on page 4 of my documents. BTW, Since the begin date of "41F" is 13 July '16, I understand that as long as the (mailed in) form 1 is postmarked NLT...
