Magpul Enters Shooting Brace Market – Announces Two Models

Thursday, January 16th, 2020

In a surprise move, Magpul announces two shooting braces, the BSL and BTR.

In the case of both models, they are compatible with Mil-Spec carbine receiver extension equipped AR Pistols. They are not compatible with proprietary, pistol, or commercial receiver extensions. 

Don’t forget, all ATF, NFA, state and local rules and laws apply, where applicable, which brings us to another point.

No, there isn’t an ATF letter and there won’t be one. BATFE no longer issues letters for individual accessories, having changed their policy to only examine complete firearms to determine whether they meet current regulations. As with any firearm accessory, it’s up to the manufacturer and user to properly use the braces.
