So I've got a mk18 that I'm almost done with...nut I'm de eating whether to SBR it or not. Right now I have a VLTOR A5 system on it with an SBA3..and measuring it between a std. Carving buffer with a B5 Bravo on it the SBA3 is .3" shorter. The B5 feels better, but I dont know that its $200 better.

Now that the ATF has given a go on shouldering braces, is anyone SBRing anymore?

My SF 3PWC should be here within hours and my FDE SF Warden will be here Tuesday. Then I need a tan surefire and a tan AFG and it's done. Then I'll move on to a geissele 14.5 URG....or should I do a Geissele railed mk18? 20181103_133520.jpg

Only matters where I'm going
Isn't saving $200, being able to sell the thing (more) freely if you want to, and dick-punching the NFA some other advantages?
I have a sbr and a suppressor, not selling either. Took me a long time to get both and don't care about paying the tax stamp. It is what it is, here today, gone tomorrow.

I will note, that if it's some kind of specialty build, that you may sell, then yes maybe brace!

I wouldn't SBR an AR anymore and I own 5 of them.

Had the braces been as good back then as they are today I wouldn't own at least 4 of the 5 AR SBRs.


The good thing is I probably wouldn't own the pistols either. The stamps have made me keep them.

I was going to build a SBR but then I bought an AR pistol, I didn't really think I would like it but it has grown on me.
I saved $200 and I can travel with it so no need for a SBR for me.
