Sig's new ar "pistol" arm brace

[FrankT]

There you go, you need it w the recoil on the 458...Good Luck!

I like that the SBX would be folding, will fit in a small case, easy to carry

 

[FrankT]

Dave the SBX is the new brace, I have not found the folder option yet, did you?

 

[DaveABQ]

No, first time I've seen it here, but one thing I like about one of my hog rifles that I use my SBR lower on is that with my PVS-14 setup I can carry it in a 30" case, which makes it great carrying on the ATV out to my blinds.

So a folding stock would be nice as long as you have a case wide enough to put it in.

I need to track down the one Sig Tac showed w the SBX then

I believe that even using the KAK tube setup,you will need at least one of the spacers. With my thermal I have settled on the small spacer only. The large spacer was ok,however using both made the LOP too long for my purposes. --- pruhdlr

Got the KAK Gen 2 installed. But my previous tube set up caused the Sig arm brace to stretch a bit. It no longer fit properly on the KAK. Had to do some modding on my own. Here is what I came up with.

I had to wrap the tube with some rubberized tape. This allowed for a snug fit. But it was still just a tad too close for my comfort. I only bought the tube and not the Kit since I had all the other parts I did not need the added expense. So no spacers. But even if I had the spacers since the brace was stretched out it would slide over the stop with a little push. The recoil would have just kept pushing it forward. I had to make a spacer to blend into the tube and look like it was supposed to be there. I think I pulled it off and pushed things back another inch.

Now I just need to take it to the range and see how it performs.

It would be the same here as mine is on a Phase5 tube and it is larger than the KAK. SO I got the KAK, spacers and all then will order the NEW SMX brace and all will be fine, selling the SB15

What'cha want for the SB15 (and ATF letter)?

 

[FrankT]

$110, have to get the other one first they are out of stock

 

[Ratdog68]

Got me an SB15 ordered up for Bison Chip. Have my own "spacer/stop" planned for mine. Should be nice.

 

[FrankT]

I am just waiting for the SBX to be released, KAK tube on spacers waiting. Then I will sell off my SB15

 

[Ratdog68]

Got my SB15, got it installed. Managed to get it put on w/o any sort of lube, may not need anything as a spacer to keep it from sliding forward under recoil. We'll see.

Also got my Vortex SPARC (Red Dot) optic Gen 1. Really like how compact it is. The Gen 1 comes with a 2x that screws onto the rear ocular. They're NV compatible and have a variable intensity 2moa dot.

Goodies for "Bison Chip" (6.8 pistol).

 

[FrankT]

The new SBX brace has been released, I am going to buy one if someone buys my SB15 Brace for $115 shipped.

M'be I shoulda bought a case of 'em? Looks like they're appreciating at a steady rate? LOL

 

[FrankT]

Well the SB15 is 125 and the SBX 149 I did get my SB15 for 109, but that was only 1 place on ebay I know of.

 

[Ratdog68]

Additionally, my Vortex SPARC arrived. Both installed onto Bison Chip, 6.8 pistol. 8.5" barrel. And, that's a Maxpedition tablet case, which is the perfect size for the Microsoft Surface.

 

[FrankT]

Nice RD!

 

[Ratdog68]

Nice RD!

Thanks. Still need to go ahead with my "spacer" plan. I'll incorporate a loop for clipping a sling to it... just forward of the Sig Brace's nose.

 

[FrankT]

I used a Noveske QD sling mount and have one on the rail of my hanguard.
