A federal appeals court issued a decision on Aug. 1 finding that a Biden administration rule requiring that stabilizing gun braces be registered, along with a fee paid for the registration, will most likely be struck down on legal challenges and extended for 60 days an order allowing gun owners and dealers to sell and buy guns without adhering to the rule. 
Two Texas gun owners, a dealer, and gun rights organization had filed a lawsuit against the DOJ contesting the legality of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’s (ATF) stabilizing gun brace rule.
