I don't understand why so many people could misinterpret the wording in the March 2017 letter which clearly stated this about the particular brace that was accepted: "With respect to stabilizing braces, ATF has concluded that attaching the brace to a handgun as a forearm brace does not "make" a short-barreled rifle because in the configuration as submitted to and approved by the FATD, it is not intended to be and cannot comfortably be fired from the shoulder" (emphasis, mine). My reading is that any brace that can be comfortably fired from the shoulder would not qualify.
