?There cannot be a law-abiding society if no one knows in advance what law they are to abide by, but must wait for judges to create ex post facto legal rulings based on ?evolving standards? rather than known rules.?― Thomas Sowell, The Vision of the Anointed: Self-Congratulation as a Basis for Social Policy
The Congressional Research Service says the total number of pistol braces could be between 10 million and 40 million. The ATF is poised to change the rule that defines their legality. Not a change in the law, but a change in the ATF's interpretation of the law that could make 10 million (or maybe up to 40 million) law abiding citizens into felons with the stroke of a pen, without any change in the law. And then, of course, we will have to wait for people to contest it and judges to decide if they are felons or not... Wouldn't their time and our money be better spent going after violent criminals?
