there is nothing a real stock could do better than the SBA3 brace does. it is funny it got brace status.
The only thing a real SBR does better is be 100% legal, brace is not a legal protection at all... the ATF technical letters carry no weight of law, they are just opinions on the interpretation of laws, they offer no legal protection, are subject to change, and are no defense in court.

Go see The Pickle at Buhler Ballistics. I use him a lot, but I am sure there are others in BR that can pin and weld.

Yeah, it's probably only a matter of time before they get the bump stock treatment.

If you permanently affix a muzzle device bringing the barrel length to at least 16", then no. And I wouldn't gamble on that - I would make it AT LEAST 16.1" so you don't even up in federal trouble with an overeager enforcement agent.
Otherwise, yes.

It can't be a regular A2 FH either because that's only 15.9".

So, they'll remain legal?

I thought those stupid things got banned (sales, not possession)?
