John,

Short-barreled rifles are effectively portable, easily concealable assault weapons – and the gun industry is using a legal loophole to make them more accessible to the general public.

Luckily, President Biden is proving once again that he is a gun violence prevention champion: He has proposed a rule that will close the loophole that makes it easy to turn a pistol into more lethal short-barreled rifles – weapons that are growing in popularity amongst mass shooters.

We only have two more days to submit comments in support of this lifesaving action. Leave a comment and urge the ATF to stop the spread of dangerous short-barreled rifles! >>

Right now, gun manufacturers and buyers are using certain “stabilizing braces” to circumvent federal gun regulations and make short-barreled rifles accessible. A stabilizing brace is a device that can be attached to a pistol to help a shooter "stabilize" their arm, originally designed to assist individuals with disabilities. But some accessories marketed as stabilizing braces are circumventing our gun laws, allowing shooters to turn pistols into illegal short-barreled rifles and enable easy, accurate, and rapid fire that makes the firearm significantly more deadly.

We only have 48 hours to submit comments supporting President Biden’s executive order calling for the ATF to prevent this dangerous misuse, and we are counting on all of our top activists – like you, John – to take action right now:

Will you submit a comment right now and urge the ATF to regulate stabilizing braces now and prevent the spread of dangerous short-barreled rifles? Here is the link that will send your message directly to the ATF: https://act.bradyunited.org/a/stabilizing-braces

Your comment will help determine the future of these accessories. We must stop the spread of these weapons as soon as possible in order to save lives.

Thank you.

Team Brady
