But did you ask if you could get a pack of untaxed cigarettes ?
There has been such confusion and ambiguity created in the last few years regarding arm braces on rifle caliber pistols that I can't help but think it's intentional at this point. First they were ok to shoulder, then not ok to shoulder, then ok to shoulder again..... at this point there's enough plausible deniability to keep things sufficiently muddied that it's doubtful anyone would ever find themselves in any trouble for shouldering an arm brace.
So is this an intentional move by NFA branch to reduce the number of incoming Form 1's for SBR's? By letting people essentially create a look-alike SBR from a pistol, thus lowering the volume of Forms needing to be processed and hopefully dropping wait times. Seems like a good strategy on their part, if it's intentional.
I've built 4 bare receivers into rifle caliber pistols with arm braces in the last few months, and I'm seriously contemplating having EVERY bare receiver built into a pistol first, photographed and marked as such, just for the versatility options. I doubt I'll ever again build a receiver into a rifle first again.
It makes me wonder if this was some kind of compromise strategy on their behalf to drop wait times so that suppressors won't need to be unregulated, but will remain NFA, with more realistic wait times
I really don't care about the reasoning behind any answer in my favor. Take it and run.
If my wife says yes to sex, I don't stop and have her explain to me why the answer is yes.

Do you work on the Hill? Have you ever? No, you say? Shocking. How did I know that, right?
Well I have. And not all of them are as useless and disinterested as your own delegation from here in MD. Some of them are very, very responsive to calls and letters from constituents. My former boss was an outspoken (literally) regular type guy from a southern state. Our SOP was that every reasonable inquiry from a constituent got looked into and responded to. So it's not out of the realm of possibility that other men like my old boss would pick up the phone and make a call if one of their voters asked them too. Because I've seen it happen. And agency heads don't like getting calls from the guys who sit on the committees who approve their budgets asking them questions about why the public is pissed off at them.
But I'm sure you're right. It's just overthinking
