Glock 17 Brace?

[Pat Riot]

Honestly, I am not sure if this is a device searching for a market or is there actually a market for these. This is a collapsible brace for the Glock 17.

I can see it for folks that have a hard time stabilizing a pistol. If I needed one I am sure I would appreciate it, but I wonder what benefit this would give to someone that doesn’t have a physical impairment.
Perhaps on a 10mm for hunting, maybe?

People buy it thinking they are getting around sbr laws which in reality very few would buy it for any other reason

How did I ever get along without such a wonderful device?

A brace will seriously improve acuracy. looks like fun.

Maybe on a G40 long slide with a dot. No practical purpose i can think of other than enjoyment.

Wow.....it has a price tag of $259. About the cost of a High Point carbine. Why wouldn't you just get the carbine and be done with it?

Looks like it may be interesting on a Glock 18.

Cool, but too expensive.

Looks like a solution in search of a problem. If somebody wants to SBR a Glock that badly, design a shoulder stock that attaches the same way as the backstraps.

I’d get one if it were less expensive. That’s the cost of a lot of ammunition, a decent red dot, or a low priced gun.

I don’t think I’d use it for carry, though. Just a nice range toy with my can.

Man that sure seems to shove your hand way to low...

Looks pretty flimsy, definitely overpriced, but moderately useful under the right circumstances. Those circumstances don't exist in real life though. I do see a toy like that being fun over a fishpond that's been invaded by turtles.
