Short Barreled Rifle Vs Pistol Brace

Ойын-сауық

Today, we're exploring the differences between short barreled rifles (SBRs), large-format PDW-style pistols, and pistols with stabilizing braces. What are the legal differences and why? What are the advantages of owning one over another? And why don't you ever see me using a braced pistol in our videos?

    My main takeaway from this is that if the ATF doesn't say you can't then you should never ask if you can.

    When I got my PDW, I opted for the pistol version without a brace due to the ATF's general ambiguity, subjective inconsistencies and probability of arbitrary changes to their pronouncements over time. Nor did I choose the SBR version because of the hassle. I use a single point sling, with a technique where I brace both of my elbows against my torso. When holding the PDW on target and looking down at my forearms they form a near-perfect isosceles triangle. When I look directly ahead, the pdw is centered and I'm looking directly through my red dot sight. When I fire, there is very little movement and I'm quickly back on target for the next shot. I spent time practicing and now it's second nature. Works great for me.

    Personally I'm not a fan of pistol braces. Why take an easily concealed handgun and add a 'brace' which is essentially a poor stock making it more difficult to conceal. One may as well carry an SBR simply due the fact a rifle round is superior to a pistol cartridge. Personally I carry a G19 since it will allow me to fight my way to the rifle I shouldn't have dropped. ;)

    Owning one as a pistol allows me to conceal carry it in a backpack, can't do that with a rifle. Braces have become very comfortable and have the same features as stocks so assuming there isn't a random ATF ban I see no reason to SBR it

    This is extremely helpful. I had a lot of trouble finding clear information on the legal definitions and differences between sbr and pistol while planning to build an ar9mm pcc with a 16" barrel for home defense. Now I'm thinking an 8.5" pistol would be more maneuverable, and easier to sweep the house without feeling like I'm on patrol in Nam or something.

What can I say, I thought you didn't have such stupid regulations like we do here in Italy (which for sure are worst!!). At least not at federal level, but at State or local level only.

    @@borkwoof696 yes, for sure they are better than in other countries: we can own almost any type of firearm. But there are limitations on the maximum number of certain types, on the number of cartridges, it's practically impossible to get a carry permit for self-defense (typically the permits that are issued are for sporting or hunting purpose). Not too bad considering the fact that having a firearm here is a privilege and not a right, but I'd prefere less restrictions: most of them does not make sense at all!

    The difference is simple... If your barrel's overall length is less than 16" there are 2 options you have (for now, at least) if you wish to remain on the right side of the law., An "AR pistol" uses a stabilizing brace and cannot have a vfg attached to the rail, while an SBR can be configured any way you'd like. The difference is an additional $200 tax and an additional background check and waiting period if you go the SBR route.

Oh, and even in case of a terroristic attack, you are not allowed to use it for self-defense because the German government has the privilege on lethal force witch was by the way given to them buy the Americans after ww2.
