Yeah, "fun size", as in candy bars. You know... the small ones are called "fun size"? I didn't think I would have to explain this to an American.

And once again you're getting all butthurt because something you don't like is legal. The ATF may change its legal opinion on "arm brace" or whatever they're called, but I choose to not worry about it. Frankly, I don't care if they're made illegal or not because I doubt AR-15 pistols will ever be much more than a novelty. And if you want to ban arm braces, go right ahead. I'm not going to argue with you or defend them. I personally think the definition of a handgun is a gun you can shoot with only your hands touching the gun, so I have ZERO issue with outlawing pistols with arm braces.

Yeah, it's sort of a short-barreled rifle, but the only issue with that is that 88 years ago somebody decided that rifles with barrels shorter than 16" required a Federal tax stamp and extra paperwork, and maybe in modern times somebody kinda sorta got around this.

If the classification of "short barreled rifle" didn't exist there would be no issue for you to be morally outraged over.

Regarding the pistol comment, it was a plural "you", not you, AndyS, specifically. If it helps, replace it with "y'all" in my previous comment.
