When discussing SBRs and SBSs with non-gun-rights-savvy folks, I always emphasized those specialized firearms were LESS powerful, far louder, and more prone to muzzle flash than standard-length guns; all of which are huge negatives when bad guys are selecting a firearm for criminal use.

I was thinking along similar lines, except I was about five yards out of the gate when you finished the first mile with this article. Nicely done! So much so well developed here. Barrel length has always been a crock. ATF and many other agencies rule by arbitrary standards they invent administratively for the purpose of building control.

If the government cannot prosecute you for murder, smuggling illegal alcohol, gambling, or prostitution, they will use tax law to do so.

Awaiting a response from Al Capone.
