Most Helpful Positive Review Great Product - High Quality
I recently installed this SBPDW Brace on my CMMG AR-15 chambered in 9mm with a Lone Wolf lower that accepts Glock magazines. Installation was simple. You just need a castle nut wrench. I was a little excited and didn't remove the telescoping Brace portion from the main piece which made it more diffi...

Most Helpful Negative Review heavy and packaging bad
I was excited about this but it left me underwhelmed. It is puite heavy which kind of defeats a pistol build and rattles alot. The packaging needs to be improved, they box it like there normal brace products (tossed in a printed box) but with the black metal edges on this product, this causes a huge...

great brace

by Eric, Verified Owner from UT, United States Written on January 20, 2025
I installed it on a 10.5” AR15 pistol, it was easy to install, and makes the AR look a lot better than when I had the SBA3 brace on it. Haven’t had the chance to shoot it yet but I’m sure it will work just fine. The only issue for me is it’s a little on the heavy side. But still worth the buy.
Pros:
  • None
Cons:
  • a little heavy
Would recommend: Yes

Good PDW Stock

by Darth Maffett, Verified Owner from GA, United States Written on August 14, 2024
This stock is a quality build and a good addition to making an AR pistol into a PDW. I was able to get in and out of vehicles easily, and clear buildings and small rooms without the weapon getting into the way. The installation was easy and quick. I would STRONGLY suggest buying extra springs because it is inevitable that you will either bend or lose the originals when installing. Also purchase a decent quality AR armorer's wrench, and vice. I bent the takedown pin detent, lost two in the process, and eventually had to clip one of my reserve pins to get it back functional, but this was a user error. Remember to remove the brace from the buffer tube to prevent marring and scratching. There are plenty of youtube tutorials on removing and installing the buffer. It looks cool and has a high "chicks dig it" factor.
Pros:
  • Price
  • Ease of Install
Cons:
  • None
Best Used for:
  • Room clearing/home defense
  • Room clearing
  • Vehicle carry
Would recommend: Yes

Great, but not for me

by Lucky, Verified Owner from MN, United States Written on June 10, 2024
I tried to like this brace. But eventually decided to get rid of it. I just felt the brace was just too wide at the end and just wasn't the most comfortable thing for me. But overall the brace was high quality.

SB PDW - Best Brace on the Market

by TheAnalyst, Verified Owner from AZ, United States Written on August 4, 2021
The SB Tactical SBPDW, at the time only available in black and has only 3-positions. Initialy I wasn't sure about this brace and now having used it, it is actually very well made provides a somewhat compact feel to it. SB Tactical needs to make a Stock version of this brace. No buffer or spring included. Buffer tube is part of the assembly.
Would recommend: Yes

SB Tactical PDW Arm Brace

by TheAnalyst, Verified Owner from AZ, United States Written on July 28, 2021
Excellent replacement for a standard AR Pistol Buffer Tube. The 3 position limit is my only issue with this brace(- 1 star). It is very sturdy and construction seem very well made. No installation instructions included, but it was pretty easy to install if you have enough AR building experience. The end plate, buffer or spring is NOT included. Texture is close to a flat matte black, no other colors were available as a final clearance.
Pros:
  • Excellent quality
  • EASY INSTALL
  • Sturdy construction
  • Improved Appearance
Cons:
  • Limited adjustability
  • Final Clearance
  • No other color options
Best Used for:
  • AR Pistol Configurations
  • M4 Milspec Carbine Buffer Tube
Would recommend: Yes

Fit on Live Free Armory AR-10 Lower

by JC, Verified Owner from FL, United States Written on March 18, 2021
SBPDW on a Live Free Armory AR-10 Lower: prongs of the brace are too tight against the body of the lower. Very difficult to deploy or shorten the brace. No issues with any of my PSA AR-15 lowers. May need to play with it until the friction molds the parts...

Pretty much what I was looking for

by Mike, Verified Owner from IA, United States Written on July 1, 2020
One and only complaint; only one. Would have been 5☆ if the slide would extend without pushing the lever. Slows you down a tad when needing to engage in a hurry. Wanted FDE, but it was going to take too long to get back in stock, so went with black. I often paint my firearms anyway, so that wasn't critical.
Pros:
  • Works and installs great
Cons:
  • Must push lever to extend stock
Best Used for:
  • Pistol
Would recommend: Yes

Nice PDW-works good

by Travo1378, from IL, United States Written on May 9, 2020
Overall this PDW Brace is good. I do wish the brace would collapse down a little more(the picture provided is the furthest it will collapse). I know that it will not collapse down any more than that because of the carbine buffer tube. Although, I have found some info on parts that are compatible with Maxim Defense, like the slide stock, it will work on this PDW...but Maxim Defense is crazy expensive. If you are looking for a REALLY short PDW...look at Maxim Defense instead(if you have the $$$). But all in all, it functions well and I am satisfied with the product.
Pros:
  • Look, and feel
Cons:
  • Just the collapse
Best Used for:
  • Home defense applications on an AR pistol
Would recommend: Yes
