Sheriffs are standing up for the Constitution. I believe this will end up at the Supreme Court.
GARLAND Co., Ark. (KARK) — The Garland Co. Sheriff joined several others across the state in announcing Friday he will not enforce a new federal rule that requires the registration of stabilizing braces for handguns.
The rule, signed by Attorney General Merrick Garland, reclassified handguns equipped with these braces as short-barreled rifles, which already must be registered.
“The ATF is concerned that people are using these against their shoulder as a short-barreled rifle instead of a handgun,” said Nathan House, the Arkansas Armory’s General Manager.
