The SB Tactical brace is ok, but it really didn't work well as a brace for me since it didn't fit around my arm well. I was using a Custom Smith Manufacturing brace with a tail hook before I got my stamp since the tail hook actually works as a brace, but ironically I think it actually counts against you more in the new AFT brace calculations.
Unless you have a specific need to keep it a pistol, I'd suggest just going with the SBR route. My e-file Form 1 was approved in less than 2 weeks. If the brace rules do end up getting changed I would imagine a huge influx of applications so it would probably be nice to be on the front end of that.
