I am not planning on becoming a test case, and have very little confidence that our comments are going to change things one iota, based on the current atmosphere.
I own three braced pistols. Two of them I built up from stripped lowers, one in 5.56, the other in 300 BO. I have removed the fin style Shockwave braces, and have covered the buffer tubes with foam. If/when this abomination becomes a reality, I will destroy the braces.
The third pistol is in 9mm, and it came from PSA with an installed SB Tactical brace. Since it is almost 100% certain that it would be ruled an SBR based upon the proposed criteria, foregoing the possibility of it ever again being used as a pistol, I have ordered a 16" upper, as well as a new adjustable buffer assembly and rifle stock. I will be shopping around for a new stripped lower in order to create a virgin pistol on which to use the pistol upper.
Call me a defeatist if you wish, I prefer to consider myself a realist. If this doesn't come to pass, I will put the braces back on, and will end up with an additional 9mm rifle as a bonus. If it does come to pass, then my bases are covered, and I won't be caught up in the panic buying in order to make my 9mm lower legal.
