[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 2720744, member: 94491"] Atf doesn't really care if it's a pad or not-- I'm sure they will go back to "shouldering" . Your device isn't a firearm by design so it can't really be regulated-- but the use of it on a pistol could be"banned" just like what is happening with the arm braces right now . It ultimately comes down to intent and actual use--- if a pistol was "shouldered" using your "pad" then it's use would be as a stock n an "sbr" --- doesn't really matter what you call your "pad"--- it's intent is clear. Have fun with it-- I had a similar idea of my own just not as refined-- but in the end its all about use and intent. GCA/NFA laws were written before today's technology evolved and leave open "loopholes"--- just like the maxim 50 muzzle loader, pinned muzzl devices, and for some states - thumbhole stocks, bullet buttons, " fixed AR magazines, etc. --- things like this are why the atf is trying to "reinterpret" the definitions in the gca/nfa Necessity and government are the mother of invention.
