Opinions, experiences, with semi-auto handgun stocks? E.g., Glock with stock?
Better than (say, 9mm) carbine for indoors HD?
Prefer real SBR firing real rifle ammo?
Not worth the NFA hassle with such a short barrel and half-assed ergonomics?
The ultimate in maneuverability balanced with firepower?
EDIT: A couple of random examples here

The ones I have shot over the years were too short, and put pistol sights too close to my eyes for good sight definition.
I could shoot the handgun better without the stock.
Certainly not something I would pay good tax stamp money for and register with the ATF!!
It would be a good addition to a machine pistol for more recoil control.
But not on a semi-auto.

Probably, but I'd rather have just the handgun.

Yep. Modern defense ammo means that your rifle ammo isn't going to go through 15 walls and 3 more houses. It is just as viable as handgun ammo. Anything that will penetrate a person will penetrate a wall or three.

Not worth the hassle. I'd rather have an SBR'd AR

The only people who will get on board with that statement are on the product marketing team.

If its a FA pistol, it is nice to have a stock and it doesn't require another stamp.

This.
I've shot a friends shoulder-stocked BP revolver, which was kind of fun but not reall practical. Certainly not worth hassling with the NFA requirements to do it with a regular pistol.
Prefer real SBR firing real rifle ammo?
Yeah, if I was going through the trouble, I'd rather have a CQC style AR with a shorty barrel.

My experience is with a Mauser Broomhandle, both semi and full auto. The stock helps, but it's not an adequate substitute for a real SBR.

Bingo.
