Stabilizing Brace

Homeowner shoots, kills Carolina Trace intruder, Lee County deputies say

by: Rodney Overton
A homeowner shot and killed a home invasion suspect in Lee County early Tuesday, deputies said.

The incident was reported around 2:50 a.m. in the Carolina Trace neighborhood, which is a gated community south of Sanford, according to a news release from the Lee County Sheriff’s Office.

A 911 caller said a person was trying to enter the home.

“Deputies arrived at the residence and found a male subject that had been shot by the occupant,” the news release said.

EMS crews arrived and said the injured person died at the scene.

“The investigation is domestic related and is ongoing,” according to the news release.

Federal court deals blow to ATF pistol brace rule ahead of gun accessory registration deadline
Gun rights groups argue ATF lacks the authority to force millions of gun owners to register their weapons equipped with stabilizing braces

By Chris Pandolfo
A federal appeals court has temporarily blocked the Biden administration from fully enforcing new regulations on pistols with stabilizing braces, gun accessories that President Biden has called “especially dangerous” after they were used in several mass shootings.

The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday enjoined the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives from enforcing its new rule against gun owners and Second Amendment groups who filed a lawsuit challenging the regulation. The temporary injunction comes days before a deadline for individuals to register their pistol braces with ATF, destroy them, or remove the accessories from their weapons. Those that do not comply with the regulation by May 31 will be forced to pay a fee.

Gun rights groups have argued in court that the stabilizing brace rule violates the Constitution by requiring millions of gun owners to register their weapons.

Like bump-fire stocks I don’t have a lot of use for these personally. Which doesn’t matter a bit- rapping Biden’s ATF on the nose with a court order is what’s important.

There are men running governments who shouldn’t be allowed to play with matches.

The shorty with 10.5 barrel fits in my car nicely, with the LAW folding stock adapter it fits in my motorcycle hard bag.

Doesn’t matter if “I” like it or not, or if “I” think it’s useful or not.
It’s the principle of “…shall not be infringed”.
It’s the principle of individual freedom.

If I hadn’t lost mine in that horrible boating accident, I found the pistol braces most useful on AR style pistols, especially ones that could fold or slide out of the way. Kinda like the CZ Scorpion S3 EVO mini…boy am I missing that little guy!

She warned ya….

Dude…she’s just not that into you any more…but her boollit is! BZ Ms. Thang…fight back.

‘stead of a pistol brace, I’d be more in the market for a brace of pistols. A pair of .45 Long Colt Matched pair Peacemakers would be nice.

Maybe we should use matches on some of the ones running governments?

LOL

Oh, Sanford…..

Imagine if President DeSantis were to appoint George Zimmerman to head DHS or ATF? He may not be the smartest guy but he takes care of business and gits’r’dun!

I thank George Zimmerman for his service to Sanford, Florida, and good people everywhere some of whom were victims in waiting.

As far as the ATF decision goes; a regulation or policy is not a law, and cannot be enforced as one.
They want to classify the stabilizing brace as something that needs an FFL to purchase, possess, and use, thus putting it under the Firearms Control Act of 1934. This would suddenly turn millions of gun owners into instant felons over night.
Ex Post Facto in action (prohibited under Article I Section 9 of the Constitution).

Saint George Floyd of Fentanyl was accidentallyed from us on this day.

Blessed are thou amongst armed robbers of pregnant ladies. Pray for us non-excited delirium sufferers, now and in the hour of our ODing…. while a cop innocently restrains us…. as we requested.

All believers say “i can-tuh breev”

and if you don’t say what we tell you, be prepared for us to turndown whatever we want, whenever we want, while the politicians, press, and corporations facilitate us.

Coincidently, it is also Towel Day:

A towel, it says, is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have. Partly it has great practical value. You can wrap it around you for warmth as you bound across the cold moons of Jaglan Beta; you can lie on it on the brilliant marble-sanded beaches of Santraginus V, inhaling the heady sea vapours; you can sleep under it beneath the stars which shine so redly on the desert world of Kakrafoon; use it to sail a miniraft down the slow heavy River Moth; wet it for use in hand-to-hand-combat; wrap it round your head to ward off noxious fumes or avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (such a mind-bogglingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can’t see it, it can’t see you — daft as a brush, but very very ravenous); you can wave your towel in emergencies as a distress signal, and of course dry yourself off with it if it still seems to be clean enough.

Mos Def nailed this role imho-

I bet the Sanford lady had her eyes wide open and her attacker in the spot lite. Cone
of fire focused on the 10 ring.
She had a home defense plan and carried it out with precision. Well done lady!

That’s pretty speciesist to assume the rat didn’t order it.
Besides, ratkinds are people too!!

Speaking of, the idiots in my AO want to get rid of brand spectrum rodenticides because some bald eagles were too stupid not to eat dead mice, or something.

These are the same people that want to outlaw bird feeders because the bears belong here.

Morons. We live in a country run by morons.

That’s also a pretty big rat.

AR’s with less than a 16 inch barrel tend to have accuracy short comings in 5.56 mm.
