The modern crop of adjustable pistol braces are essentially stocks.

The only reason I'm not 100% sold is the potential for ATF ruling reversal down the road

My feeling as well. For now braces are easy and don't require any paperwork. The tailhook braces are sweet.

as a guy who ONLY owns SBR's, my vote is - the brace is better.

- you can carry them loaded in your vehicle where some states wouldn't let you do that with a long arm or SBR.
- you can hunt with them where some states wouldn't let you hunt with NFA.
- you can travel with them without a 5320.20.
- it's the only LEGAL way you can have a registration-free "SBR".
- most importantly, you didn't have to spend the better part of a year waiting for them to take your money and put you in their database. again... you can buy it and shoot it the same day.

You know that weapon you own, that had to have all kinds or paperwork bs and then due to lazy gubment employees you had towait 6 months to 18 months to actually possess it, even though you passed all background checks and the supreme law of the land gurantees your right to own and use it, well we have some more paperwork and wait times for you if you have the audacity to take it on hunting or shooting trip out of state.

Yeah um no.

So how does a brace save your ass trying to drive through a hostile state such as NY who doesn't honor federal passage laws and you get pulled over? In MA? NJ?

My SBR has one purpose and one purpose only; home defense. A rifle is better on the roads. And here in my state it's legal. Concealed. Loaded. In the front seat. And I don’t drive out of state. I fly.

I used a rifle to SBR, was already shooting it prior to and enjoyed it

So yes, buy a rifle and do the paperwork and yes you can still shoot it on the very same day. Add the short barrel later when it's legit and easy peasy.

We all don't universally agree on what we see the values of our guns no matter what configuration of legal terms.

As someone who has had recently done the Pistol to SBR back to Pistol (Remove From Registry) path I have something to say about this. This works for me others it may not but alas its something that I went through and now find to be what works.
Pistols as in handguns are in 9mm, Everything else (Rifle, Carbine, Braced Pistol AR's) 556. I have standardized everything on 9 and 556. The Browning 22 lr pistol once sold will be it.

SBR is the ultimate Home Defense Weapon. A 556 AR with a 12.5" Middy Suppressed  or 11.5" Carbine Suppressed is best a dedicated for HOME ONLY weapon. Only taking it to the range to train for the day some asshole comes asking for holes to be inserted through him.

Braced Pistols with 10.5 carbine or probably the best is a 8.5 - 7.5 pistol Unsuppressed BUT with a Blast diffuser are for the travel outside of  your state. Small discrete and easy to store and LOTS of firepower on tap in a very small space. Separate the upper and the lower and you have something that can easily store in luggage.  For those that say suppressor makes it quieter. YES but As soon as you do that you might as well have a SBR because you are going to have to tell the ATF about the suppressor anyway.

Once I with an SBR went to The north GA mountains to a private range, then over to Helen, then back north crossed into north Carolina, then West through the Cherokee national forest, up into Gatlinburg, and then over into TN, and then finally back down into ga via I75. BIG trip. Forgot about the SBR thing. Thought about it as I was crossing back into GA.
YEAH pucker factor was big. WHOLE time I was oblivious and forgot. Never did that trip again with the SBR'ed scorpions and have since sold them. Now the only SBRs are 556. and handguns are 9mm.  Do plan on getting a 556 Pistol maybe a Saint for travel.

Life is "believe it or not" easier.  When it comes to travel. YMMV though.

Here's the deal. The SBR folks drew first blood here and consistently come to shit on the pistol braces—PERIOD. To deny that is to be completely oblivious.

You consistently seemed to get triggered over brace guys, but I never see you jumping the people who call the brace owners gay. You want some unity? Unity FOR WHAT? Getting SBRs off the NFA should be the goal. Stop replying to the people who are defending themselves from the pro-registration crowd.

Well, as has been stated, it's easier to cross state lines with a pistol brace.  But on the other hand, you can't compete in the PCC class in USPSA with a pistol brace.

So if either of those things matter to you at all, then you have your answer.  If you don't plan on taking it across state lines, and don't shoot competitively, it profoundly doesn't matter.

Here's the thing, I came onto this site while that war was already in progress. Over who fired what shots first, under normal rational thinking I'd agree with you.

But things over the years has given me cause to be polarized. Have you seen one person who runs their sucks for a brace, ever seen a rifle with braces too? Well I haven't and I've looked. Yet so many come in saying muh blah blah is just as good as your stock but not ine of them posting their toys in the various pic threads have muh brace on legal lengths. That's some grifty zero effective meters crap right there, saying one thing and then contradicting yourself.

I've seen the same arguments with the F pinned and welded a 14.5, muh 16 is better. If there no NFA laws or at least no SBR laws, these same 16 or die would all be running with 14.5's and telling everyone why their 14.5 is now suddenly better than their former 16. Just say that you're too cheap or can't be bothered because you're just that lazy instead of being a hypocritical twit.

This isall about money and there are some really cheap tightwads in here who will argue all of the above and then try to find threads to defend their cheap Tula minute of barn ammo. Put brass ammo at Tula prices and suddenly brass is better than muh Tula.

Money makes you all do the stupidest contradictory  things to argue over. Highly quixotic possibly even.

I'm on your side but I am not affraid to wait and do the hoops and paying the man. If the NFA went away, hell yeah and wouldn’t blink ivee the 200 dollar losses. Money well spent during the dark days is how I look at it. I'll keep doing it until then, it's my money and not up to anyone else to decide if it pays the man or not to begin with.

The actual shooters don't make stupid arguments about ammo or SBRs.  I have both SBRs and a pistol with a brace.  I'm not buying another SBR as long as I can still get braces.  Why would I?  I have my own range, I don't shoot the pistol AR in competitions(yet) and who is going to check me?  No one.

This I have multiple SBRs, and currently only own one of the original sig braces which is a clunky pain in the ass. However looking at the market, my next lower will be one of the newer braces.  I don't have the same issue as you, since PA allows concealed and vehicle carry of SBRs, but with the quality of the new braces, it's not worth $200 and the hassle of finger prints for another stamp.

I was always told ANY NFA anything 5320.20 to cross the state lines. Didn't matter??

AM I wrong.

SBRs are definitely cooler but in my state you can't have a loaded rifle in your vehicle.

CPL with pistol brace works.

Yes, you are incorrect.  Suppressors do not need a permission slip.

So if I don't SBR a rifle will I stay off the .gov radar?

That seems to be only real argument on why not to do it.

But if it gets to "that point" wouldn't it be time to pop pmags anyway?

i've got braces on my PTR mp5 clone, CZ scorpion, and 2 AR lowers. I've got paperwork in a stamp for a 10.3" AR SBR. Can I just swap the upper between the SBR and pistol lower if I'm crossing state lines?

I am assuming you are talking about AR pattern weapons.  I have both and like both.  Had decent braces like my new SBA3 been available six years ago when I did my AR SBR, I would've never sent off for that stamp.  My PS90 SBR is another story entirely.
