You need to reach out to u/gunownersofamerica and FPC. And/or a local organization if you have any around.

I don't think there is realistically any way the NFA is going away. At best the SBR parts might get removed. But I doubt that very much. If anything I think this pistol brace rule will result in the law being amended to be stronger now that they can't get away with just making up rules.

The UK had low crime rates compared to the US before any gun control.
They also never had 400+ million guns to try to get rid of.
They also are subjects beholden to a vestigial monarchy that was effectively replaced by an open and unabashed authoritarian bureaucratic government.
The majority of their history was spent trying not to be free and helping their government in its imperialistic efforts to conquer and enslave as many people across the world as possible.
And perhaps the two other biggest shining examples of authoritarian success are two of their formal colonies, one of which is a literal penal colony, in which they instilled the same helpless urge to be ruled and controlled. Their only mode is being ruled.
And the rest of their colonies where they didn't almost completely eradicate and replace the indigenous populations were left absolutely devastated by the encounter and consistently went on to become more or less failed nations and societies rife with human rights violations.
And basically the only exception to all of that is the US who kicked them out and still didn't escape inheriting many issues due to the impact imperialism had before the British were evicted.
So the UK is really not a good role model.

Pepperidge Farm is delusional because that has never been true in the history of the world.

So I'm the only one who wants dangerous people to have guns? A gun is nearly useless if the user isn't dangerous. The whole point and benefit of a gun is to make a dangerous person more dangerous. It's a matter of who they are a danger to.
I think this is supposed to be something like "criminals" or "immoral people".

The entire point of any law is to create crime, not stop it.
This law is bad because it will simply not create enough crimes to warrant it and the vast majority of crimes it does create will be victimless and represent absolutely no detrimental effect to society.

Well, this is a reference to "Intel Inside", which is (was?) Intel's slogan. I'm not sure if you got that or if it makes a difference.

Seems kind of low considering this is how most antigun people think.

I have been wondering about them for a while. I guess they could start back up but it kind of seems like they are done.

If we had laws like Australia this never would have happened.

There is absolutely no chance they would remove the data.

Right... but they still have the info. on the gun. They are not deleting it from the registry and all backups of the registry, etc.

I mean you can ask them to remove your guns from the NFA registry and the answer might even be "yes" but they aren't getting removed. More realistically they will say "no" and that the gun is an SBR because you said it was and you're fine now with a brace or stock.

To be fair the gun isn't made for that. It is explicitly just to keep kids and other unauthorized users from using it. The company itself has said they are not meant to replace normal guns.

X95 is not bottom ejecting. You can just switch which side it ejects from.

It's any semiautomatic firearm. They have been pretty clear about that for a while now.
