The Justice Dept. announced a new rule targeting pistol attachments known as “stabilizing braces,” implementing a key move in the Biden admin.'s efforts to beef up gun control regulations.
A stabilizing brace is an attachment to a pistol that functionally turns it into a short-barreled rifle, similar to a sawed-off shotgun. Such weapons are considered particularly deadly as they offer the power of a traditional rifle, but are much easier to conceal.
The new rule clarifies that pistols modified by a stabilizing brace are subject to those additional requirements, department officials said. Last year, President Joe Biden and U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland announced they were planning measures to tackle stabilizing braces as well as “ghost guns” — a type of firearm that is assembled by users and practically untraceable.While Democrats in Congress have pushed aggressively for new regulations of stabilizing braces, most Republicans have opposed such measures, portraying them as an infringement on Americans’ constitutional gun rights.
