NEW ATF Guidance Burning Questions Answered

Survival is step one. We’re step two.

Armed Attorneys Richard Hayes and Edwin Walker break down the NEW ATF guidance released October 9, 2026, answering some of the biggest questions about short-barreled rifles, suppressors, pistol braces, NFA registration, private firearm modifications, and interstate travel.

Can you finally put an adjustable stock on your SBR? Can you build a suppressor without a Form 1? What happens to ATF Form 20 when traveling across state lines? And should you still put firearms into an NFA trust?

Richard and Edwin explain what the ATF’s new enforcement guidance means for gun owners, the difference between federal and state laws, and what could happen if federal policy changes under a future administration.

In this episode:

* Adjustable stocks and pistol braces under the new ATF guidance
* Home-built suppressors and registration requirements
* ATF Form 20 and interstate transportation of SBRs and SBSs
* Folding stocks, silencers, and reversing firearm modifications
* Vertical foregrips on AR pistols
* NFA trusts and whether registration still makes sense
* Private transfers and the possibility of future rule changes
* BONUS: Can a Class 3 laser pointer be considered a deadly weapon?

IMPORTANT: The guidance discussed addresses federal enforcement policy. State firearm laws may still impose restrictions, and federal policies can change.
