USA – -(AmmoLand.com)- As you may know, the ATF has proposed a ban on 40,000,000 pistols! On September 8, 2021 at 11:59 EDT, gun owners won’t have any more chances to provide ATF input.
The next step would be if and when the ATF’s gun control goes into effect, because then GOA and the Gun Owners Foundation will file our lawsuit!
But a strong showing by gun owners in opposition to this Proposed Rule will send a clear message to future judges who will take up our case.
So it is critical that you take action today—before it’s too late!
We are truly watching an incredible double standard on the part of Joe Biden.
While the Biden administration has handed over 600,000 U.S.-made firearms to the Taliban, where is the ATF focusing its efforts? On disarming the American people.
Joe Biden recently ordered the ATF to prepare a gun registry and regulate gun parts with background checks to destroy online sales using Proposed Rule ATF 2021R-05. It’s TOO LATE to comment against that now.
But you do have a chance to fight back against the ATF’s proposed ban on 40,000,000 pistols—before midnight on September 8!
GOA examined ATF’s proposed pistol ban, and this is what we found:
- 1) The ATF’s Proposed Rule constitutes a blanket ban on the use of stabilizing braces.
- 2) Both the December 2020 attempted ban by the ATF, and this ban, both conflict with prior ATF guidance. The ban would overrule all previous classification letters issued by ATF.
- 3) ATF fails to meet “basic procedural requirements” of administrative rulemaking.
- 4) The ban glosses over ATF’s arbitrary creation of millions of new felons—which would be comprised of you, the law-abiding gun owner.
You just cannot make this stuff up!
I hope you can understand why it’s so critical that you and every gun owner you know TAKE ACTION and submit a comment to ATF, demanding the proposed rule be withdrawn!
Take Action Here
Gun owner to gun owner, if you haven’t taken action yet, I implore you to please do so if you haven’t already. We must all stand together, or this rule will ban up to 40 million firearms.
In analyzing the comments, GOA also found evidence of ATF’s disingenuousness. Put simply, ATF’s Regulatory Impact Analysis in the Proposed Rule is bunk.
In the Proposed Rule, ATF alleges brace manufacturers have lied about sales, and that only about 3 million have been sold. But the Congressional Research Service—comprised of nonpartisan government bureaucrats—estimates up to 40 million braces could be affected. The Proposed Rule’s estimates of its effects on gun owners, the firearms industry, and the economy is flawed.
It’s truly mind-boggling. The ban blatantly attempts to seize, waste, and obliterate an unfathomable percentage of total annual U.S. firearms commerce. And we know why they want to do that—it’s to undermine Americans’ ability to exercise their Second Amendment-protected rights!
Now, Gun Owners of America is preparing to submit our own comments to ATF explaining each of our concerns in depth.
Right now, we need you to use our model comment tool to echo all of our concerns to ATF.
The more gun owners make these powerful arguments during the notice and comment period, the more obvious the administrative record will be that ATF’s rule is arbitrary and capricious when GOA and Gun Owners Foundation sue to stop the rule in court.
We can win this one and we can keep winning in the future, but you need to get involved and TAKE ACTION today.
Take action
Thank you for taking action!
In liberty,

Joe Biden was not elected to office in 2020 The democrats committed election fraud. Most Americans understand this and would agree when asked the question about election fraud in 2020. Joe and the Ho are just puppets in a a government run a muck. Please look back at what they did during Trump’s presidency the democrats have no shame . Our FBI CIA NSA Justice Department are all corrupt by the way so is the CDC who have no power to legislate law and order so said the supreme court this past week. The ideology of the democrats going forward… Read more »
I think I’ll make my comments afterwards. They will be very loud since I don’t own any sound suppressors. The only CRIMINALS in this whole ordeal are the people working for the ATF. “They” may not see themselves as one but frankly, crapping all over SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED is a CRIME and SELF DEFENSE is not. So here is my comment to ATF…GO FK YOURSELVES AND KMA!
The hypocrisy is deafening. Janus of Rome lives in infamy. A system of terror. 1. Government by intimidation as directed and carried out by the party in power in France during the Revolution of 1789–94; the system of the ‘Terror’ (1793–4): see terror n. 4. https://www.oed.com/oed2/00249602;jsessionid=A14CBC89A41317E966650528756F5841 Zionism = Internal Revolution aka Deep State. “The dictionary definitions of terrorism are usually simple and clear, though. They often go something like this: “The use of violence, or the threat of violence, to frighten people in order to achieve a political, social, or religious goal.” As of this posting, the Oxford Dictionary (US… Read more »
Why did GOA give (and not revoke) Tom Cotton’s “A” Rating when he supports red flag laws – some of the worst gun control laws?
Why, after the idea was brought to their attention, didn’t GOA “encourage” politicians to publicly buy a made-in-Texas suppressor on Wednesday?
Politicians who want the votes of pro 2nd Amendment voters need to do more than talk.
Firearm rights organizations need to raise the bar for politicians if they want to continue receiving donations.
GOA, you really need to pay more attention to the demise of the NRA.
Government is never going to fix government. Relying on some government to fix other government is ignorant and naive in the extreme. It is the People who are responsible for reining in government. It is we who are slacking and abdicating our duty. And the way to do so is not through reliance on government.
A convention of the States will end tyranny the way a heat wave ends drought.
I’m thinking that the time for a REAL insurrection is long past.
Our Funding Father would already have been finished shooting a second time. Sadly, Modern day We The Little Peeps Patiots are wussies. Libturds get away with what they do, because we allow them.
first confiscation will likely be the last, as people will band together knowing they could be next,next is freeing every one jailed for nfa violation next is jail all atf people and many fbi for the crimes they have committed under color of law then judges who have ruled against constitution I think it is called a revolution gallows and guiltiness may com back in vogue

What took them so long when we already know Crisis Actors we’re used ?
That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they… Read more »
They have learned just fine. It is you who have not. You keep thinking that there are some government officials and media who are on your side, or who are conveying facts. These are your delusions.
Very NRA like article; time to see where the Suits the GOA executive committee come from
Boy, you lefties never cease trying to vilify the GOA do you? We know why. It’s because they’re hurting you bad. Oh, for the good old days when you controlled the opposition through the NRA, huh? Them were the days… 🙂
Gone now though. La Trine wiped that out by stealing so much as to be patently obvious, even to a blind man.
