someone else will probably hop on, but the ATF approved the sig brace as is..meaning if you modify it..it leaves you open to have a peppered angus.

Actually I was searching around for something like this topic. I really want to know if anyone has taken off the front nub with a razor or something. It's a bit useless frankly. It just kind of hands there and it might lighten it an oz. (hey every bit counts haha). It shouldn't be a big deal considering it doesn't "change" the sig brace. Not modifying and cutting off the flaps for the arm part would be different as I've seen in other post, but maybe putting "holes" or rectangle cuts down the flaps might lighten it a bit more without changing the actual design. Below is a picture of proposed cuts. I'll think about this and possibly try it out later.
**The red is where it would be cut. I'm sure using a razor blade that is extremely sharp would be able to cut nicely. <a href="http://s98.photobucket.com/user/southkhaki19/media/PSA%20AR-15%20and%20Gun%20Accessory%20Case/My_AR-Pistol_Build_1-1.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i98.photobucket.com/albums/l272/southkhaki19/PSA%20AR-15%20and%20Gun%20Accessory%20Case/My_AR-Pistol_Build_1-1.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo My_AR-Pistol_Build_1-1.jpg"/></a> |

Have you seen the original design of what was actually approved?
Do whatever you want to the Damn brace as long as it can still be used as a brace I wouldn't bat an eyelash |

I checked the weight of the SB-15 myself and weighs in at 11.89 ounces which is slightly less than a Magpul STR stock (12.3 oz.) and slightly more than a Magpul CTR (8.8 oz.) To that end it's obvious it will weigh more that the foam on the pistol tube. Knowing the structure of the brace I don't think it will be possible to remove 8 oz. of material from it without changing significantly.
Considering the barrel you used weighs 24 oz. I would think the weight of the brace helps to balance the pistol out and a balanced weapon will feel lighter than one that's front heavy.

I may open myself up to controversy but that is alright. I went ahead and did a bit of modding to the brace. I did NOT take away from the functionality. I primarily just used a razor and took off a bit of material in choice areas. The function and primary look is the same minus a little bit of material. There are a few other areas that material could be removed but I just didn't want to go to far and have a hack & slash mod. A razor glides through most of the material quite easily and looks pretty OEM the way I have it. The black color is dyed throughout so material removal by a razor doesn't give that horrid powder white look. I will say that the material I removed may add up to a couple ounces. I'm sure you could probably remove a total of 3-5oz from it in all but it would take a lot of precision and time and thought to prevent you from completely changing the original design/purpose. I think in a game where weight counts and a lightweight build is what you are going for, this may help a little. If you are using optics and QD mounts and THEN saying you want a lightweight build, then the ounces you remove from the SB15 brace is useless and you should just /quit LOL. Hope this helps.

Doing anything to it that would prevent it from being used as an arm brace might get you in trouble. I am just talking about removing material. I'm not sure why Sig added so much bulk to it. |

It wasn't difficult at all. As long as you get one of those construction razors that have a handle. The blade will slice right through. It's fairly pliable rubber. If you have issues you can always heat it up and slice it. As for the cuts I made. I just made a slight slice with a ruler and then threw that to the side and just pushed really hard and followed my little line I precut. Very simple. Most of the stuff has a "straight" line in the rubber so you really only have to follow that.

This is approx 3-4oz cut off. Remember you must leave the basic functionality. It actually almost looks just like the new SBX Brace from Sig. If you cut at an angle up to the "Made in USA" i'm sure it would be another oz or 2. That is pretty thick right there and should still retain a lot of the rigidity of the brace.

To anyone that's removing material form their braces, please do us all a favor and weigh the material you're removing so we can precisely determine what the weight savings are. Considering how many people feel the SB15 is heavy I believe that our judge of weight is a bit off. Case in point - someone on this forum was told by the Sig factory rep that the SB15 weighed 22 oz and as I found that number was off by almost a factor of two.
One of the key thing in making a lightweight build of any kind is knowing precisely what the weight are for the parts you're using in your build. A few ounces here, a few ounces there and suddenly the weapon has gained a pound. |

I have the material I shaved off. I received my H-1 mount today which states it is 2.2oz and the material I took off is clearly heavier than that. It could possibly be close to 3-4oz. I will try to find something to weigh it. Maybe at work i might have a scale. It may look like a lot was removed but it actually wasn't much. If you go up to the area and make diagonal cuts you could possibly take a few more oz. It is solid and thick like the front nub was. Will update when possible. Seeing the SBX that is coming out I feel a bit more comfortable removing material. It actually looks just like it and I hadn't even seen the picture until I removed what I have thus-far.

You totally nailed it on the shape. I'm definitely going to cut the nub.
 I am still thinking about drilling just below the buffer tube and parallel to it while leaving the cross members intact where they would rest on your forearm.

I also weighed the difference (literally) between just a standard forged upper with the Seekins rail and the IRMT. The difference was 2.7 ounces more in going with the IRMT. I selected the T-1 for its light weight and instead of going with a full sized light I am using the X-300 Ultra. There really isn't any other place to trim weight really except in the stock and maybe the bolt carrier but I am reluctant to use the super light weight ones for fear of dependability issues. I also thought about trying one of the polymer lowers from JMT. That would cut another 3 to 4 ounces off a standard lower. |

Get rid of the rail and get a BCM KMR save about 4oz. their. Get a forged reciever save about 2 ounces like you said. Doesn't look like your going to mount a suppressor by the teeth are covered up by the rail and the suppressor mounts add weight. Save a 1/2oz their. No need to shave anything really.

Quick follow up - I just go off the phone with Sig and they do not have a weight on the SBX. I was told "they don't have that level of granularity on it" so until someone gets one in their hands and weighs it we can only guess what it weighs.
I'd chop up my SB-15 and weigh it myself but I don't think it's worth doing until I at least get it mounted up. Even then I don't think its weight will warrant reduction for me. |

A bench grinder works very well, regarding smoothly trimming up/shaping the brace. Besides taking off huge areas if need be... Also rounding off and smoothing the otherwise sharp squared edges that a razor can leave. I learned that trick yrs ago while shaping/resizing motorcycle roadracing windscreens.
Edit: Top one has been about 3 minutes of reshaping with the grinder. Wings are shorter. The squared edge coming left and down from the nub thingie is rounded off. 
Ground the bottom edge at an angle so they'll close together slightly better. 
After hitting the brace for about 3 seconds where one can see the obvious cut area(bottom edge coming down at an angle from the front nub thingie). That can be rounded off smooth very easy with the grinder.

It is interesting that the SBX is totally round on top. Coincidence, or an improvement once the ruling came down that shouldering the brace (and therefore laying your face against the top) is legal? The SB47 is round on top as well. My SB15s will be rounded soon. My 7.5" pistol weighs a hair over 6 pounds so I don't see a need to cut parts off of it. |

The parts removed were approx 2oz. (weighed) .. If you take up the wings a little bit and take off the thicker part (like someone did) you could probably get right at 3oz or a little more than the 2.8oz than posted earlier. I think that is a good trade off while still retaining the function of the original product.

I really appreciate you taking the time to weigh the parts you cut. Giving people the objective data on the change makes it easier to decide if it's worth doing or not.
As it stands now your brace weighs pretty much the same as a Mapul CTR. :) Good job. |

I think at some point a light brace can have a negative effect in that it unbalances the pistol. Strapping the pistol to one's arm helps to stabilize the weight also does as well. An unbalanced pistol will feel heavier than a balanced one. Good point. I'd rather have the brace be as light as possible, and add weight as needed rather than remove weight from a finished product. |

I don't mind a brace that's 8-16 oz as long as it balances out the pistol.
I'm building one of my pistols this weekend and it will have a 11.5 BCM lightweight barrel, 11" Troy Alpha Rail and Magpul AFG. All of those aren't super heavy so the brace should balance out nicely with it. |

The balance is a non-issue on my 7.5" pistol with an unmodified brace and Samson Evo 7.6" rail. I never gave it any consideration, and don't notice or think about it while shooting.
I don't think anyone who picked it up would say "hey, this is pretty cool, but the balance is a little off". The RO who shot mine on its maiden outing certainly didn' have any negative comments. |

I don't imagine a 7.5" bbl will have much in the way balance issues but not everyone runs that short a barrel (e.g. I'm running a 11.5" bbl) and one's chosen muzzle device can also come into play (e.g. Noveske Flaming Pig and the like can be heavy). Weapon balance is just something I like be aware of, that's all.

I cut the nub off. It only weighed 3 gms.
Still debating where else I might shave a few more ounces off it.

I cut my SB15 down a bit to try to get closer to the SBX look. Didn't quite take 3 oz. off the weight. http://i.imgur.com/DM5KxI7l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Q4ME06Rl.jpg I like the way that looks, can you show us an overall picture showing the entire pistol, pleas? Thanks! |
