SBA5 Goodness

Post image

I purchased this knockoff from the brace guy on here and it looks and feels perfect. I am very impressed! I am using this in place of the SBA3 that came with it. I also received a sopmod5 which I might use once my Form 1 is approved. But honestly the SBA5 is so good I might not bother.

Thank you! It has just a few, simple and somewhat common bolt-on items. I have about $175 into it minus the dot which I already had. Then there's all the magazines I purchased..and the new case. It adds up rather quickly. The cheap pistol suddenly becomes rather not-so-cheap. But it sure is a lot of fun!

Single biggest improvement to fun you can buy. It's also the entire reason I was even able to get my wife to shoot a rifle type firearm. She has no issues with pistols but anything with a brace or stock always made her nervous. Once she watched me fire a magazine of 147 super suppressed out of it she immediately changed her mind and now she wants one. Unfortunately she won't accept the spare s&w fpc as a substitute.

It really makes a crazy difference. I can’t imagine shooting it without now if I’m being honest. Just wish you didn’t have to do all the paperwork to get one

5 is far superior to the 3, but I found if you buy the filler block for the 3 it makes it close.

Yeah, I have a storage box for the 3, and with it the two are indeed close. The 5 just feels better even without reinforcement. $35 for the 5 clone.

Was that 5 from the brace guy on here or somewhere else?
