[Perplexed]

This rule does not affect “stabilizing braces” that are objectively designed and intended as a “stabilizing brace” for use by individuals with disabilities, and not for shouldering the weapon as a rifle. Such stabilizing braces are designed to conform to the arm and not as a buttstock. However, if the firearm with the “stabilizing brace” is a short-barreled rifle, it needs to be registered within 120-days from the date of publication in the Federal Register.

Could this paragraph possibly be any more vague and subjective?

Following this, I recently bought a short barrel AR with a brace, from a member on here in Tulsa.

It’s not a specific listing - they say it’s “not exhaustive.” In other words, they can include any unlisted arm brace as they please.

With Oklahoma being a second amendment sanctuary; what does that mean for us. Anyone have a clue who the right person to ask would be?
