The fact that items such as an RDS can “change” the category of a weapon should cause a big pause. They’re planting seeds for further bans and restrictions on anything they wish down the road.
Working diligently to enlarge my group size.
It is not that simple. Only Congress determines what is banned. ATF rulemaking is constrained to those statutes. While a sight having eye relief that would require shouldering the gun can be argued to show that the user intended to shoulder the gun, and that therefore a device at the back end is intended to act as a shoulder stock, I know of no statutes directly banning sighting systems.
The reference to red dots refers to red dots in connection with magnifiers, not a red dot by itself. A red dot with unlimited eye relief would not show any intention to shoulder the gun.
Guys this is all my fault I'm sorry. See for a long long time I avoided buying anything with a brace on it because I knew the second I did something like this would happen and well last week I finally caved and got something with a brace. I'm sorry to do this to you all with my shitty luck.
That was some sarcasm mixed in with truth about my luck.

I remember a long time ago the standard for a pistol build was a receiver extension with a foam covering, something like this

So if the prerequisites are 64+ ounces and maximum length of 26" inches, wouldn't that make a 12.5" AR completely ineligible for "braced handgun" status?
