Yea I guess they are thinking pinfire? Ian McCollum had a civil war q and a video the other day that talked about pinfire being the cartridge available at the time but they went with rifled muskets due to cheaper to produce/ readily available I think he said. Some of those pinfire guns look cool and are cheap but how one would ever shoot them I don't know.
Only if they aren't rimfire or fixed ammunition centerfire firearms like the Winchester 1894s and Rolling Blocks or similar.ATF Form Exemptions | Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives

read the definition of antique firearm as such those prior to 1898 do not fall under the NFA as they are not technically firearms per the ATF.
Or use obsolete ammunition... Sheesh. I remember looking at a pre 1898 SBR but it used a very obsolete ammunition type. As in, you would have paid a fortune for the 3 brass I could find online. I scrapped the idea. I had forgotten the full definition.
I didn't find out until a few weeks ago that they are a division of the IRS. I'm still surprised
I wonder who got all of the ARs?
I was under the impression that changed in 1972...
Yes, it puts things that go BOOM in a federal registry, as opposed to things that go POOF. All depends what you're comfortable with. Remember the AWB is still sitting in the Senate after having passed the Dem House, and the potential for dead dogs increases exponentially.
I'm not the OP, but it changes things for me if the new "law" is enacted. I will register my pistol and change to an adjustable stock. In fact, I already ordered the stock because I feel that "if" this goes into place, there will be a larger demand for them.
This, yes many of us already have suppressors, all registered and tax stamped. So doing the stamp on an SBR isn't any different, pay it and you have a fun shooting SBR. Let's not kid ourselves, they already know what we have purchased legally, the stamp is just funding for their bubblegum show. When it all comes down to it if they they are coming for our SBR's and suppressors, pretty sure they will be coming for all of them.
Doesn't change anything for me. In fact this solidifies even more I won't be doing one. Really, a free stamp... for something already "manufactured"... and very few are seeing red flags on this. This entire thing is entrapment and has been confirmed by many lawyers.
26 USC 5848 covers the whole "self-incriminating" paperwork stuff. 88 days may be a myth based on the FBI open BG check deletion thing. ATF agent present at SHOT show may not have the right info or knowledge, she isn't a lawyer who has memorized every iota of ATF regulations
And I yours.
