How is this NOT an SBR?

[killmime1234]

A handgun brace is CA legal and does not run afoul CA's assault weapons or SBR laws.

I'm sure once it's on the CADOJ's radar, they'll release an opinion that it is a stock.

Defeats the purpose of having an SBR ie, close quarters. With the barrel sticking way out in front of you, it would be like a 20" barrel AR.

pure idiocy.

I believe the original purpose of the product was for handicapped shooters.

OK - still don't get it. How does making a really heavy, awkward pistol with no real way to aim properly help a handicapped shooter?

Just makes no sense.

I didnt put it on HD but was that guy Travis?! Lol.

Anyways, cool. Didnt someone on here make a prototype similar? Sig must of kacked it from them.

Yep, and it looks like Sig kept the name:

Those of you wondering how it helps, just try to imagine shooting an AR pistol when you only have one hand.

Granted, you'd have to strap it down with your teeth, but after that yer GTG.

I still don't see how the "Mare's Leg" (lever action w/cut down stock) isn't a SBR but when you put the AR pistol w/buffer tube into the equation, I guess it makes sense.

An original Mare's Leg, a cut-down rifle, is an SBR. The modern Ranch Hands and such are built from the get-go as pistols, so they never were rifles, so therefore they can't be short barreled rifles.

You guys are missing the point of this. Shooting is as it's intended to be shot has almost zero advantage over traditional AR pistol shooting. Everyone's getting excited about this because it could be shouldered like a stock without making it an SBR.

Nothing new under the sun! Reminds me of the SPAS 12 arm hook (which takes prodigious arm/shoulder strength to achieve!)
It is uber mall ninja cool though...

That's true!

It's time to re-introduce the Bushmaster Arm Pistol!

Tie the receiver to your forearm, and you are GTG!

Bingo.

And personally, I dig it and might just look into buying one. It "could" perform double duty if needed. I can appreciate when the industry makes something new like this.

MSRP on the SB15 is $139 - a little steep.

good for the guy who invented it..

wasn't this the child of necessity ?? For handicapped shooters?



hope SB15 got payed well and donated well..wonder if he gets royalties or just a check with bragging rights..
