Run what you want, but the ATF still has a fickle mind.
I stopped masturba... Err... um... playing with "pistol braces" about four years ago. Dumb idea. Too much mystery and risk.

I, personally, have an SBR now. I don't have to play with stupid, overpriced 'braces' on "pistol" lowers.
I can run a full-blown, completely legit "rifle" lower, with all of its benefits, and not have to wonder what the ATF's opinion will be next week with my 10.5" .300 Blk upper, or the 14.5" .475 Tremor upper, or the 3.25" 5.56 upper.

I run what I want. I don't have to worry about changing opinion. ...Or short LOPs that make shooting a pretend SBR a pain in the butt (or nostril).

It took less than three months for my SBR stamp to come back. It ain't an 8+ month wait any more.
If you had filed back when you started this thread, you could have enjoyed completely legal SBR fun for QUITE some time, now. ...And probably saved money on the novelty 'braces'.
Stop being dumb. Get real. Get legal. File the Form 1.
