Just curious, how does this NOT infringe on SB tactical's patent for their arm brace?

Yup.  It functions very differently then anything SB Tactical makes.

Found more pics with the MP5. GHW made a special adapter that attaches to the stock slider bars and allows the Tailhook to be installed.



Looks real nice on the EVO too

In their video it sounds like they are working on a final production model with improvements upon the mod2

I really hope they modify the Mod2 latch section to look more like the ones on the Mod1 and Mod3.

That does look pretty sweet!  The idea popped into my head to get one for a 9mm AR build I wasn't going to do this year.  What's one more???

Production version may be a lot larger circumferencewise.  
unless BATFE has a 5 yo tech examiner

If submitted as loop goes around the forearm, you don't think they'll try to put the sample around a forearm.

Someone's forearm wouldn't fit when the hook is closed, but it certainly should when the hook is in the open, firing position.

Not trying to be gay or anything, but this doesn't look like the forearm of a 5 year old

The Tailhook is supposed to be used in the OPEN position for the full benefit of the design.

d'oh!
Thanks for the pic.

They are also making a Tailhook version (Mod-3) with a PDW style collapsible system.  I was trying to decide between the Maxim Defense Brace and the Tailhook.  Now I don't have to!  



There is also a new video showcasing a Tailhook brace for the KRISS Vector where the presenter also provides some great info on why the Tailhook braces are better then anything else currently out.

The AR one, focusing on that for this post. It needs a detachable sling mount.
Link Posted: 1/19/2017 3:11:35 PM EDT

It certainly does. Someone mentioned that was supposed to be added in the production piece....once I see that, and they are available. I will order 2 as quickly as I can!

Not sure if FDE will be available, but would go that color if possible.

Needs non rotational qd sling sockets.

Wish it fit a standard carbine receiver extension, but couldn't to be approved.

Looks great. Would buy very much maybe.

D@ng, it looks so close to the original design...I might have to bite the bullet and sell off the current CZC folding adapter/Blade assembly!

That pic reminds me of the hook on a SPAS-12 folding stock.  I'm sure it will work better with a 4 pound gun than it did with an 8 pound gun.
