Yes, the SBR charge was dropped and they are just charging him for possession of an unregistered pistol. Originally they had charged him with possession of BOTH and unregistered SBR and an unregistered pistol for the same gun. Obviously the gun cannot be both a pistol and an SBR so they had to drop one of the charges. The US Attorney took the easier path, but that doesn’t mean that all braces are always legal.

The legal cases you mentioned were about the ATF’s new Pistol Brace RULE with its arcane “factor” system that was intended to outlaw nearly all braces without blatantly saying so. The courts threw out the rule on the basis of not meeting the standards of the Administrative Procedures Act. The rule with its factor system is out, but that does not change the law about short barrel rifles. You can still be charged with possession of an SBR if the ATF and DOJ think they can prove that what you call a “brace” was actually a “stock.”

I find it all very confusing since I live in Illinois where the firearm is produced and could never be a plaintiff in either case. Under Pritzker Illinois has threatened citizens that were party to a lawsuit with arrest if they purchased a firearm while protected by an injunction. I guess the USSC has no problem with ‘justice delayed.’

And the defendant in the pistol brace cases, would that be AT Pam Bondi? I trust her a little less as each day goes by. Yeah, she done some good things and talks an OK game. Here is what would help bring back some trust of Bondi, drop the controversial Dettelbach cases, he is an idiot. Investigate the federal cases that involved needless home raids and cost human lives, (Brian Malinowski, Craig Robertson). Bring charges where the feds were criminally negligent.

Admit that the most disturbing case files of Epstein, the JFK assassination, 9/11 et cetera will never be released for the unwashed masses to view.

The proof that the most telling evidence will never be released is exemplified in the JFK assassination. Just seconds after JFK was murdered, federal agents identified every person with a camera, approached and seized almost every camera at the crime scene. Today that time period where federal agents were able to calmly confiscate the ‘evidence’ would now be called an ‘active shooter.’ The feds were unconcerned with being shot, why? Where is all that ‘evidence’ that the feds confiscated from those filming the event?

I am afraid Bondi will never put herself at cross purposes with the fake law and order of the deep state. She is looking more and more like Sessions and Barr.

A Member? Since when did the 2nd recognize any membership other being a U.S. Citizen??? Are you saying being a member of those organizations means you won’t be charged? That’s a blatant violation of the 14th Amendment’s equal protection clause.
‘rules for thee but none for me’ ISN’T in the Constitution nor it’s Bill Of Rights.

As of today, the SBR charge against Taylor Taranto has been dropped. Happened a few days ago and the ATF admitted it had been filed mistakenly.

Braced pistols have been legal since June 13, 2024 when the Thompson v. ATF ruling and Johnson v. ATF which reaffirmed the judgement which said the ATF’s ruling was “arbitrary and capricious” and thus vacated the ATF’s ruling on braces nationwide and is not dependent on being a member of a particular group.
