Some people love this brand but I do not. Great ideas but poor product quality. 4) I have also received the suggestion I need to practice more and I do not need any type of arm brace. If that was true then no one would ever by an arm brace. 2nd that is not the appropriate thing to say to someone who is handicap and has trouble stabilizing the firearm. In fact, the original purpose for the arm brace was for an individual with one arm who is handicap. 5) the suggestion that one can get a PSA AR 9 mm again negates the issue of a reliable self-defense weapon in addition to it being heavy and bulky.

Therefore, any device in which I can attach an arm brace to a handgun and increase comfort of shooting and stability is something of great interest to me.

Thanks for all the posts and if I could only screw and arm brace into my SIG 226.

Does it need to be an arm brace rather than a stock? I’m currently waiting on the paperwork to clear on one of these.

I would prefer a stock but I am still leary about going through ATF - just more regulation. I assume that some states may have restrictions about carrying and concealing loaded Class III firearms? Thanks.

SS this is my 9mm PDW/Pistol and they make conceal rigs for carrying under a jacket.

I don't have a good SIG answer. My 229 and 320 are just sidearms.

Great pictures. Great pictures.

I just clicked on the Link for the B&T pistol with a stock. Interesting idea. It has me intrigued.

I’m sure the ability to carry this is dependent on your state of residence. It’s ok here in PA and is covered by a CCW permit.

The NFA process isn’t as bad as most people think it is. $200.00 and a long wait but if you can buy a pistol you can buy this (assuming your state allows it).
