My dislike of the current pistol brace craze everyone seems to be getting into. Before you comment be aware that I have more tax stamps than most and would welcome the end of the ATF and NFA as much as anyone else does. You forgot to add the awesome pics of said rifles! Elitist, snob......... 
Just kidding! I just like to drool over that pic.

I wouldn't say it's what you think of the Sig Brace. But what you own and how you post your stuff here. People are silly. It seems you're squared away, you shouldn't worry what they think. Just my two cents.

I dont blame you.
However i do have one of those new folding braces for my sp5k. It looks good other than the velcro, feels solid and gives a very nice cheek weld. I may sbr it one day just to use a vfg, but in its current config i like it a lot. |

At first, I thought BATFE would clamp down on it, but that ship has sailed and the ruling won't be reversed. I don't use them only because I
want specific stocks for my SBR's. If that's not an issue, it's a great way to have an "SBR", whether you're waiting on a stamp or not. |

The brace, as designed for not going to the shoulder, is 100% COMPLETELY retarded. The brace, when used to shoulder just as you would a normal stock, is just a stock. So yes, if you intend on not shouldering it, it is 100% COMPLETELY retarded.
I think bump firing/slid stock things are even more dumb. |

I have a few stamped items and one "pistol brace" 300. Just don't used the "pistol braced" weapon in an inappropriate fashion in a public setting. No more problems.

The only bummer is I can have a Shockwave brace in a couple days...
Been waiting on 3 form 1s for 7 months. 
I only have 1 pistol with brace. It's a beater and ugly as f#ck.

The nice thing about braces is you can own your SBR in pistol form and it's still somewhat useful while you wait for your SBR stamp.

I just got a shockwave for my AR pistol and I love it! It doesn't really give me a better cheekweld than just a tube but atleast it looks 100 times cooler than just a tube sticking out the back.
Eventually I want to SBR my AR pistol but I'm moving out of state in 6+/- months and probably moving again 6 months after that. Once I finally settle down somewhere I'll send out forms but I don't want to deal with changing addresses and shit. Considering even the post office fucks it up I don't want to risk it with a NFA item. |
