Some how they're making a rule that will be considered a law when they're not a law making body? If they can't make laws, who will enforce this law and what will they enforce? Got a pistol brace for an AR? You now have 120 days to register it, destroy it, or give it to the ATF.

So it begins. Now we're going to have a ton of braces out there secretly

A velcro strap and a 3d printer will make short work of this problem.

How long until 3D printers end up like inkjet printers and certain prints it just intentionally flaws it? Think printing money and how it will skew a line or something to prevent printing money

The difference is that you can just *make* a 3d printer a la the reprap and early days of printing. Hell, you can make a 3d printer from spare parts and some ingenuity if you know what you need.

I'm nearly positive I could make one from one of those upper arm crutches and a hack saw. This law is a waste of time for those with half a brain.

Yeah, but you know what I mean. I could hack the printer BIOS/firmware to just let me print money too, but your average Joe and even some seasoned criminals aren't gonna know how to do that.

I'd think a couple of modified scanners and an arduino could probably make a 3D printer tho
