Reviews & Ratings for ODIN Works Closed Quarter Pistol Brace
— 4 reviews — Page 1
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!

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

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
Would recommend: Yes
