Most Helpful Positive Review Reliable and flashy
This brace is the perfect solution for a PDW build. I’ve read negative reviews about the stock not locking out fully - point your barrel towards the sky and it locks out every time at full extension. Activates and extends quickly. Full extension is comparable to the 3rd setting of a standard 5-pos stock. Great craftsmanship and I will be buying more!

Its cool. Few minor flaws.

by aaronndoe, Verified Owner from VA, United States Written on March 5, 2026
I like it. Definitely is not the most comfortable brace ever, but if you aren’t shooting hundreds of rounds back to back I think it would be fine. Small complaint… the screws that hold the fin in place is a little off. When the fin plate is made in factory, the holes are drilled as if the screws to hold them later would be screwed in the same direction. It’s actually one screw one side, turn the brace around then screw the other end in that way. With all that being said. You screwing into the entrance of one (correct) while you’re screwing into the exit (wrong). I believe this a design flaw. Not sure. I can only get one screw in after trying for quite some time. Also, springs for the brace are a tad bit strong so the brace will over shoot when extending causing it to not lock back on the last slot. If you practice the button push every so perfect, you can get it to pack back perfectly. All in all, I’d buy it again.
Pros:
  • Small
Cons:
  • None

My favorite braces

by Chuck, from PA, United States Written on October 22, 2023
I love these. I have two of the CQ-Bs (and one CQ-S). I bought them from another online vendor, but I wanted to leave a review here as well. I bought my first one when these first came out. My second one was a more recent purchase. Both have performed flawlessly and I think they look great.

I made a mess of the square hole on the back of the buffer tube on my first one. It was simply cosmetic, but I wanted to replace it. I tried to buy just a new tube from Odin, but they sent me a new one free of charge. I was amazed by that and very appreciative. I ordered the CQ-S (stock) version shortly after that as a thank you (braces were sold out).

My friends have seen all of my builds with these braces and stock and they always admire them. I had my first CQ-B brace Cerkaoted with all of my other AR parts for that build (this was before Odin offered different colors). It was easy to disassemble for this purpose and also very easy to put back together. The Cerakoted one is the favorite of mine and of my friends. It really shows off the design and just looks really good. The others I have are the standard black, but still look very nice on the builds I've done with them.

Form and Function, Quality Manufacturing and Stellar Customer Service. That's why these are my favorite braces/stocks to use on my personal builds and why I always recommend them to others who are unaware of them.
Pros:
  • Everything is included
  • Spring assist
  • Aesthetic design
  • Short when collapsed
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • Compact AR builds
Would recommend: Yes

Overall Great Product

by Steve, from OR, United States Written on December 11, 2020
In my opinion this is probably the best PDW style brace you can find on the market. After using it a few times now it feels comfortable while looking down range, the quick spring action release is a really nice touch that other products like the SB Tactical PDW brace does not have, which is a nice feature. However when using the spring release I noticed it doesn’t lock it all the way into place it leaves about a half inch of pull at the end leaving you to lock it in place every time which kind of contradicts the idea of the quick spring release, but that’s my opinion. I’m not sure if it’s designed that way or simply a flaw in my brace personally... Overall it’s a great brace and is my favorite out of all the main selections on the market I own them all and there’s a reason it’s sold out!! I would’ve given this review 5 stars if it weren’t for the spring action not clicking into place but other than that it’s solid!
Pros:
  • Comfortable
  • EASY INSTALL
  • Feels sturdy
  • fair priced
Cons:
  • Spring action design needs work
