Pistol ARs with "brace": experience?

[tehpwnag3]

You'll want to establish the trust before filing your paperwork. As I read it, your plan didn't seem totally clear to me.

I've just started my search for a 300 Blackout SBR. I'm not sure exactly if this will would but what I would like to do is to find a manufacture that makes a quality whole rifle but sells the upper and lower separately.

Buy the upper and buy a budget lower with brace. Then buy the lower and go through the whole NFA process.

This way I could start shooting with it now while I want for the NFA process. Also I can take the upper/brace across state lines if I care to. Then if the braces become illegal I'm not out much.

Exactly. If the ****ers change their minds for a particular week, an' that gives ya the heebie-jeebies, sheesh, then just take the damn brace off and shoot it. Ain't that hard.

^Best advice^

Just completed my first efiled form 1. just in case. It was pretty easy.

Yeah, listen to Quack' n the Doc'...it's exactly what I did with my Scorpion, put on a brace while I waited for the paperwork. Said paperwork took 10 months, which is bullchit too.
I'm not crazy about the NFA registration, but it's all a question with no perfect answers.

I have 2 braced pistols now and have no plans to SBR them. $400 will buy alot of parts for another AR or alot of ammo for AR's. I plan to enjoy shooting my pistols and transporting them wherever and however I want. If Big Brother somehow bans SBR's, I am out nothing. If Big Brother bans pistol braces, I will just rebuild my pistols into carbines and shelve the pistol parts until the rules change again.

Heck, 400 can build you another pistol, if you look for steals and deals!

I SBR'd a couple BCM's years ago before PCC really took off. I agree with others there is no real reason to SBR now unless you just can't make the SBA3 "brace" work for some reason.

Very true. If someone wants just a basic rifle or pistol, $400 will buy you one now. I got an ad from ABC Rifle Co. the other day. 16" carbine with a quad rail for $299.

I have the SB PDW and SBA3 braces and each has their own pros and cons. I want to try an SBA4 next on a 12.5" pistol build.

Since my most recent pistol cost me $1,383.86 to build. Would you please spec me a $400 build for comparison? Thanks.
