In no uncertain terms, The SIG brace CAN NOT be shouldered or you have created a SBR according to the ATF
This is insane, asinine and simply dumb, But at least its clear.
Then they say you redesigned it as an sbr utilizing the brace as a stock. You seriously can't be so blind to not see people were abusing the shady legality of the brace.The defense will present the legal paper trail as evidence, advertised as pistol, sold as pistol, ATF approval letter to Sig etc. etc.
Well it has only been recently that SBR's where allowed at all in Washington. And still it is a major hassle to buy and sell NFA items.

It does continually prove that the industry and owners will always find a way to skirt laws. They really need to remove SBR's, SBS's, and suppressors from the NFA list. There is just no reason to have them on their anymore.
With all the YouTube vids and pics flooding the internet of people shouldering them, combined with dealers and forums selling them as "stocks", it was only time before it came to the ATFs attention that 90%+ of people bought them as "stocks" and NOT arm braces.
Even gun magazines had articles with pics of them being shouldered.
I'm not blind at all, the ATF was dumb enough to approve it and now they are trying to reel it back in with ridiculous arguments. If the ATF is able to get away with gun handling as a method of "redesign" then we are all in a world of hurt. Does shooting a rifle with one hand magically transform it into a pistol? Parts make the gun, period, that's how it has to be. And yes I fully agree on your last statement, the NFA needs some serious amending.
