Someone got arrested for shouldering a brace?

I supposed it isn't the actual place I want to give a bad rep for, but just the one employee that works at Deb's Gun Range in Hammond

Thanks. For some reason I thought you were here in the Indy area. I do think he was full of hot air or bovine excrement!

The story sounds fishy, but it does reinforce the point that it's high time to either reform (good) or repeal (way better) the NFA altogether.

I call BS as well. Sounds to me like the RO was just puffing up his chest and making crap up to try to look and feel important. What range was this?

Absolutely. I also heard that 40 s&w and the Lifetime LTCH is going away...

Close. I heard your Lifetime LTCH is going away if you shoot 40 S&W. YMMV

I don't want to give it a bad name, but it starts with a D and rhythms with Krebs

To late. That train has left the station and you admit you were there?

I asked the ATF guy directly when he visited the shop I work. "Is it illegal to shoulder fire using the sig brace?" He said, "If you're using the brace in a manner other than it was intended then, yes, it's illegal." Now, granted, that's the administrative dude giving his opinion on the opinion but that's straight from the horse's mouth.

Do I worry about it when I'm out shooting mine from the shoulder? Absolutely not.

All those gun counter/range stories about, "I heard about a dude who knew a dude who went shooting with a dude once......" are just stories. But, it only takes one story to get the myths going. The bottom line is the ATF has intentionally vague "laws" that are designed to be applied when they need to be. Like all other law enforcement encounters, if you disrespect Johnny Law, you're going to find yourself with some silly charges tacked on to whatever other extortion operations they're participating in.

I heard a similar story....

A guy I met one time told me that he was at a range where a guy who was shooting a ruger precision rifle (so you know he is legit) that his cousins brother in law heard that Indiana was going to get rid of firearms season for a few years to try and lure elk back into our national park. And that the atf was rewriting the definition of pistol to eliminate all devices that overhang the rearward tang that absorb the recoils.

And that is just what I heard, For the money...

So there was another story you could have listens too but you couldn't afford it and settled on this one?
