ATF finalizes rules for Stabilizing Braces
So sounds like removing the brace, and getting rid of it, and remove any optics, solves the problem.

ATF finalizes rules for Stabilizing Braces
The ATF Q&A from Shot talked about constructive possession/intent (e.g. best to lose that SBA3 or lock it in a safe deposit box). Or change out the buffer tube to a pistol buffer tube that will not accept a stock or a brace

Probably when the rule is officially finalized and published in the federal register.

So just removing the brace and FVG turns it into a legit HG, or does one also need to change the buffer tube?

Thanks! I was confused by the language on Dark Storm website " It is not a PISTOL, as it has a barrel length of 12.5" and features a forward vertical grip, as it designed to be fired with two hands."

Just standing outside, politely waiting for you to open the door and give them permission to search? That's not how the Three Letter govt Agencies roll. I think they're coming in like an FBI/SWAT team after an insurrectionist. Breaking down doors and crashing through windows at 0300. So when everyone sees the video they will be mostly intimidated to turn in all their legal weapons

Yeah, Dark Storm took down the non-NFA listings and put up a blurb about pistol brace ruling. You can still find the non-NFA offerings on their website via Google search or direct link. But they aren't selling them until this gets corrected. I think the DSI and Troy offerings are more difficult. If you remove the brace, I don't think it becomes a pistol due to 12.5" barrel?? Does that make it still an SBR or an AOW with the brace removed? Or OTOH, does the FVG serve to bolster the "not designed to be fired from the shoulder" argument? I would wait and see if this whole, poorly thought through ruling lasts the 120 days... https://www.dark-storm.com/dsi/ds-15/ds-15-typhoon-rifles/dark-storm-ds-15-non-nfa-firearm-typhoon-5.56-black/

Wow, sounds like scientologists or other cult members. Don't think, just keep repeating what they're told. Thanks for engaging them and reporting back!

ATF finalizes rules for Stabilizing Braces
"26 U.S.C., § 5485(a) § 5845(c) — The term “Rifle” means a weapon designed or redesigned, made or remade, and intended to be fired from the shoulder, and designed or redesigned and made or remade to use the energy of the explosive in a fixed metallic cartridge to fire only a single projectile through a rifled bore for each single pull of the trigger.' Due to the brace and the FVG, it is not designed or intended to be fired from the shoulder.

How can it be an SBR if it is not an 'R' From DSI website: "It is not a RIFLE, as it does not have a stock and is not designed to be fired from the shoulder." https://www.dark-storm.com/dsi/ds-15/ds-15-typhoon-rifles/dark-storm-ds-15-non-nfa-firearm-typhoon-5.56-black/ The ATF is booth getting a lot of positive response?

Equifax Data Breach Settlement
Wife got check from Equifax today, about double my check, but she actually had ID theft around the same time as the breach, where I locked down ("froze") her CB reports for awhile. Which I documented in her request for settlement (phone calls, emails, and time spent to fix it). I wonder what the law firm's take is?

As long as they have the right ESG bonafides (or woke, or whatever bandwagon currently in vogue). Hoping this will be a black eye against ESG movement. https://www.wsj.com/articles/sam-bankman-fried-esg-truth-teller-ftx-cryptocurrency-crash-11668723808?st=nts3qunzv1chmi9&reflink=share_mobilewebshare

Biden will probably blame the gas station owners and oil companies for profiting. And why hasn't everyone bought electric cars already???

HVAC, Air Conditioning in Essex County
And keep in mind, you're replacing existing so much of the heavy lifting has already been done in terms of electric circuit, disconnect box, wall penetration, outdoor platform. You just have to remove the old unit and place the new indoor mounting bracket to line up with the existing wall penetration. And get it level of course.

HVAC, Air Conditioning in Essex County
The mini split units are cheap ($1-3k for 18,000 btu). Seville, Mr. Cool, Fujitsu, Gree. Requires no special tools except for hooking up the refrigerant pipes, and doing pressure test and evac. You can hire an HVAC guy to do that (be prepared to call a lot of companies, I've found about half won't touch it and half of those that will are expensive... Keep calling, they are out there) Or you can go with one of the Mr Cool true DIY, which comes with charged and pressurized line set and other components. Cost a bit more, but an HVAC contractor is going to cost too.

The Developing Global Food Shortage - How Bad?
I dunno, plenty of deer around here. How long will one deer last? I think it's would take months, maybe more to go through all the deer in our area of the pine barrens. And those fawns look pretty tasty. And once they're gone I might be able to grow a decent vegetable garden.

Summer Reading List
Just finished first part one of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, great read, but long and somewhat prolix. Written in 1950s, always amazes me how relevant today. Took a break from that now to read Pilgrims Progress by John Bunyan. Great book too, but gotta get used to Shakespearean old English.

Omicron explosion spurs nationwide breakdown of services
Perhaps, but I've seen the same stores after weather forecasts of big snowstorms, and they can be slim pickens. Maybe they're more afraid of the COVID.
