My inside source said the entire issue came about because of the (incorrect) manner by which the ATF measured the length from the trigger to the end of the butt plate. By the ATF's own rule, it should have been measured "in line with the bore." Instead, the measurement was made diagonally to the lower end of the butt plate, which gave a measurement longer than allowed--20 inches I think he said. It was not a question of it being a collapsible or folding stock, just an arbitrary measurement incorrectly applied.
So basically, the ATF did not follow its own rule and screwed up.
