SB Tactical Wins Lawsuit Challenging ATF Rule on Pistol Stabilizing Braces

Bradenton, Fla. – SB Tactical®, in conjunction with the Firearms Regulatory Accountability Coalition, Inc. (FRAC), B&T USA, Rick Cicero, and a massive coalition of 25 states, is pleased to announce that the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled in our favor against the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).

“This is a significant victory for all law-abiding Americans,” said Jeff Creamer, president and CEO of SB Tactical. “This unlawful rule was a gross overreach of regulatory authority by an agenda-driven agency. We are encouraged that the courts are holding the ATF accountable.”

In the ruling, the Court held that “the Final Rule, as a whole, is arbitrary and capricious because it allows the ATF to arrive at whatever conclusion it wishes without ‘adequately explain[ing] the standard on which its decision is based….’”

“This ruling denies ATF’s ability to issue vague and amorphous standards that allow it to reach any outcome it wants,” said Travis White, president and CEO of FRAC. “At one point, the 8th Circuit went so far as to state that the ATF’s arguments ‘make as much sense as shouldering a rifle by the barrel.’ This published federal appellate court ruling will serve to hold ATF accountable in future attempts by the agency to invent subjective factors that allow it to apply post hoc reasoning in classification letters and rules.”

In addition to thanking the other plaintiffs, the Firearms Policy Coalition, the Gun Owners of America, and the Second Amendment Foundation for their efforts, SB Tactical sincerely thanks the National Rifle Association for their unwavering support and assistance during this litigation.
