Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) has reintroduced his Pistol Brace Protection Act that would exempt the stabilizers from the National Firearms Act (NFA).

Lankford’s bill, first introduced in 2022, would nullify the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) recently announced rule on the devices.
