Pretty damn nice and that price is awesome too. I don't think they will be able to keep much of these in stock.

Well, it's shorter than KAK, so I guess if for some reason you want less LOP ?
Must admit, I don't see the attraction myself. - OS |

It seems like it would, so the OAL of the assembled tube + brace might not be any shorter than the KAK + SB15....since I thought the KAK was designed to end up flush with the end of the SB15 (unless one adds spacers). Phase5 pitches their cover/endcap for storage within the SB15, which wouldn't be possible if the tube extended to the end of the SB15. Am I off base here? |

Yes, you're right, this one makes the brace stick off past end of tube, hence giving the room for the storage plug, so yeah you would have maybe about same LOP as a KAK with brace slipped all the way on -- I was technically wrong about that. But I guess could do same with KAK tube, using their spacers if you wanted to make sure it didn't move forward. And still use the storage plug, which they sell separately. The difference being of course, you'd have longer LOP with KAK tube using the plug too. - OS |

What makes this attractive is that it gives you the spacer like the kak super tube , while keeping the same length of the other phase 5 buffer tube, the kak tube with spacer makes 10.5 uppers over 26 inches, which was a deal breaker for me. This solves that problem, my new problem is I gotta buy this beauty now

Is it some kind of actual crime to have a pistol config over 26" or does that just mean it isn't covered by your carry permit because it no longer meets state definition of a handgun, or what? - OS |

We had similar law here, but it's going away July 1. Anyone, permit holder or not, can keep any type loaded firearm in private vehicle. - OS |
