Let's talk PDW's

Right?

A BRN-180 10.5" in .300BO with a side-folding brace or SBR'ed with a side folding stock would be pretty awesome overall.

That said, I'm thinking of a 16" version with a stock and LPVO as hunting gun. With the stock folded it would make an easy carrying piece for dudes like me who are 5'7" on a good day.

Too long, 8.5” is all .300BO needs.

It also adds a raised portion to support the springs cup. And yes that's a QD socket.

I see now. The plug looks like it adds a picatinny rail section and then you clamp whatever stock/brace you want as the case may be. I like that it appears to also have a QD socket in there.

Looks like the kit includes a screw-in piece to install the standard receiver extension?

Brownells also has BRN-180 lowers with the pic rail on the back- for pre-order, that is.

Anyone have experience with both the SB Tactical PDW brace and the Maxim Defense? I know the Maxim collapses and expands more, has a proprietary buffer and spring and costs a bit more.

What is the advantage of a non Sig lower for the Rattler?

I allowed myself to be dragged down this rabbit hole: I bought a .300BLK 8" barrel.

My thought is that it's very unlikely the weapon will see suppressed use anytime soon, and that it's also going to be a purpose-built 110gr Barnes/Hornady launcher. With that in mind, what are the thoughts on muzzle devices here? Does a linear compensator make sense? I have no idea what the blast will be like.

If we got you this far by reading this thread... just get a Cherry Bomb muzzle device for your inevitable suppressor. Lol!

FIFY

If we got you this far by reading this thread... just get a Cherry Bomb muzzle device for your inevitable suppressor and a Whistle Tip to protect your ears in the mean time. Lol!

I posted it above, but already having a non-Sig SBR lower is the primary advantage for me.
