Post #20 on page 2 of this thread.  The upgrades are here:

Products for the Kel-Tec SUB-2000

Added a Convoy S2+ flashlight to the Sub 2K.  Pushes out better than 500 lumens on high.

I just sold my JRC. I feel a bit of a loss, I'd had that gun a long time. The reason I sold it is because I live in an apartment and the barrel was just too long.

I bought a 10.5 inch AR pistol and then immediately sold it. I never could figure out how to hold and shoot it, since you can't put the brace against your shoulder. Considering the freedom pistol.

Still digging my Sub 2K.  Take it back and forth to work and fits in a small sling bag with room to spare.

Uh,  it's okay to put the brace against your shoulder now. Has been for about a year or more.

I'm still Loving both of my PCCs. I always laugh at the haters on GT like in the current thread. Of course, most of them aren't shooters. If you only play with your guns a couple times a year, it's easy to focus on muzzle energy and maximum firepower for home defense. People who actually shoot thousands of rounds a year(or month) understand the benefits or just pleasure of a PCC.

If you are looking for a small packaged or I guess I should say a large pistol,. checkout the Freedom FX-9 Pistol.

I've noticed that in that thread.  

• What's a good HD weapon?  An AR15.
  
• What's a good toilet snake?  An AR15.
  
• What's a good frying pan?  An AR15.
  
• What's a good pair of running shoes?  An AR15.
  

I get visions of these folks all decked out in their tacticool outfits with a rifle that weighs 20lbs cause it has so may accessories on it.

Redditt is like that also. I got into this huge flame war after an 18 year old girl posted asking for suggestions for her very first gun ever for apt home defense and everyone said AR. Even after I disproved the '223 went to through drywall argument' I still got downvoted.

As you said, online, AR is the answer to everything 

On the greater internet

Really? Can you clarify? I thought that was the whole point of the shockwave brace, that it wasn't a stock, thus not an SBR

I think this is my next buy. I wish it was a 10 inch barrel instead of 8, but for 50 yards I'm sure it will be fine

"Really? Can you clarify? I thought that was the whole point of the shockwave brace, that it wasn't a stock, thus not an SBR"

Maybe I misread your statement but ATF ruled more than a year ago that it was okay to shoulder a brace. Shouldering a brace doesn't make it a stock. Bottom line, is that you can put a brace on a pistol and shoulder it without it being a SBR.

And...you might look at the EXTAR EP9 pistol @ just over $400. It gets good reviews, take glock mags, comes with a brace.
