Anyhow, to me the ATF has always ruled that baffles are basically the suppressor. Heck you can't even get replacement baffles without sending your can in. Any competent machinist could make a sleeve over that and have a suppressor, yes it would be illegal, but instead of shooting oil filters, all you have to do is get a sleeve. Having said that, the mono-core by itself I don't even see how you could call it a brake, we all know what it really is!
I hear you man. It's a blatant middle finger to the ATF. However they make determinations all the time based on minute details so if SIG wants to challenge them based on a minute detail I say "Bravo!". The more heat they get from various sources, the more difficult it becomes for them in the long run to support all their NFA shenanigans.
