101,000 comments with millions of braces sold.
Sad……..
Still got a couple of months to go. Anyone know what the record is for most comments ever?

For ATF regulatory comments? Or comments on a regulation in general? I think the record for most on any regulation was FCC’s net neutrality removal.
Though that was only about a million real comments. About 5 million were just bot generated and about 2 million were from stolen identities from the lobbyist companies working for the cable industry (which the cable industry knows nothing about. Trust us).

Not a bad start, only need a few more I think.
Only if their intention is to actually put forth new legislation to stop the ATF, and that also means getting Nancy Pelosi to agree and to get a majority of her lefty gun-hating caucus to agree and also pass such legislation.
That ain’t gonna happen.
This will have to fought in court.
For the definition of “rifle” requires that it be “intended to be fired from the shoulder,” § 5845(c), and the only combination of parts so intended, as far as respondent is concerned (and the record contains no indication of anyone else’s intent), is the combination that forms a rifle with a 21-inch barrel. The kit’s instructions emphasized that legal sanctions attached to the unauthorized making of a short-barreled rifle, and there was even carved into the shoulder stock itself the following: “WARNING. FEDERAL LAW PROHIBITS USE WITH BARREL LESS THAN 16 INCHES.” Since I agree (for a different reason) that the rule of lenity prevents these kits from being considered firearms within the meaning of the NFA, I concur in the judgment of the Court.
107,500 comments and climbing. Just over 70 days remaining. I'm thinking that we break a quarter of a million comments on this one.
Maybe so, but these public comment periods aren't a vote on the proposed regulation. They're a chance for the public to point out flaws in the regs, such as conflicts with existing statutory, common, or physical law, or how the intent of the reg will not be met by the proposed implementation.
Quality, not quantity, counts.
And quite frankly is there anything that says they can just ignore the comments anyway?
A brief synopsis for those of us following along on or cell phones?
