    If you look the wording is "obvious angle". So it needs to be enough of a not 90 degree to see that it is not 90 degrees.
    where is that wording? I don't doubt it, just like to know.

    I dont think the VFG has an obvious angle. I'd call it a slight angle.

    So he had a rifle in his home while asleep in his bed. No mention of parents. The quality of "journalism" is getting worse by the day.
    It was mom who call the police on him for having the gun. Found that in a different article

    If you can see that it's a slight angle, wouldn't that also be an obvious angle?
    They don't issue protractors to ATF agents, do they? LOL

    That's what I'd like to know. A slight angle is not necessarily obvious.

    There is nothing about an obvious angle in any of the ATF notices I can find. I didn't see it in the law.

    What a stupid story. Was the home 'red flagged' because the kid was menacing or something? Did they take other firearms from the home? Who cares that the magazine was black? He had 2 rounds. What was he charged with? It looks like an AR pistol to me, not an SBR but that's not the pool I play in so I'm probably wrong. If it is a pistol, that could be enough to arrest him I suppose. Also, isn't that 'glue-like-substance' in the wrong place to cover a serial number? Looks to me like it's covering pins. Maybe pins not aligned properly? Dumb and not enough info. Stupid way to lose your rights and stupid story. *stomps away*
    I agree. I don’t know why they even go to the bother of reporting something that banal. (I do know, because bad bad gun with kid, twice blessed propaganda)

    6 position rifle buffer tube does not work with any pistol brace on the market.
    Ok, I must have confused that with maybe the 5 position tubes. Honestly never counted the exact positions of adjustment but I have this setup on a few AR pistols.

    It's not about the number of holes, bit the size, the adjustable tubes for pistols are larger than those for rifle butt stocks.
