Lighter for one, and way less bulky. You can tell there is less surface area than the sig brace, but it still supports very nicely. I think the ability to take it off, add or remove a kak spacer ring and then reinstall with the same lockup is pretty dang cool. If i'm running plates I can make the pull shorter if need be. I also like the battery storage and the fact that it is far more aesthetically pleasing. Kinda like a sopmod stock with the bottom chopped off. Im still looking to swap out the DBAL for one of those new ATPIAL-C's and perhaps add a doctor or rmr to the top of the elcan. Maybe change out the mini scout for a WMX 200 light as well to complete a block II kit for it |

Honestly, with a small package set up, I'd run it over a regular stock anyday. There is less material to get in the way.

Current pic of my RRA 7" pistol. I popped a PA 3x magnifier with a flip-to-side mount on it just to screw around but I'm shocked at how much I like it on there. It doesn't disrupt the balance of the rifle and the 3x is perfect magnification for that PA gen red dot.

Thanks, I like it a lot. No problems from it at all and very fun to shoot.
The buffer tube is 7" from radical firearms and I'm running a H2 buffer with a standard gold 10.5" spring. The tube is only a half of an inch shorter than the one I had on there previously, but the spent shells hit the shell deflector now. |

just put an optic on my pistol build and thought i would post some pics. i went with the new vortex 1x spitfire prism scope because of my astigmatism and really like it. i went with a 10 1/2 inch stainless 223 wylde 1 in 8 barrel from mas defence. and slim KAK flash can under a UTG pro 13 inch rail and used an anderson upper and lower with a KAK buffer and sig brace. and i used a SAA nickel boron bolt carrier group with a CMMG lower parts kit.

My recent 'economy' pistol build. Still waiting for the flip up sights but thought I'd post a couple pics. Red-X Arms 7.5" ,upper mated to an Anderson 80% lower (used their jig and my drill press) and Primary Arms buffer tube assembly.
Don't known why I get the link instead of the pics to show? I'm using the Photobucket direct link and the image insert function of the posting? |
