The Strike Industries STRIKE-PDW-BK transforms AR pistol platforms into compact, controllable firearms with enhanced stability and maneuverability. This telescoping pistol brace delivers the compactness of a PDW configuration while maintaining legal compliance and operational effectiveness.
What Makes This Different
Unlike fixed braces that compromise portability, the STRIKE-PDW features a telescoping design with multiple length-of-pull positions. The integrated buffer system eliminates the need for a traditional buffer tube extension, reducing overall length by up to 3 inches compared to standard carbine configurations. Quick-detach sling mounts and ambidextrous controls accommodate both left and right-handed shooters without modification.
Key Features
- Telescoping design with 5-position length adjustment for optimal fit
- Integrated buffer system reduces overall weapon length significantly
- Mil-spec 7075-T6 aluminum construction with Type III hard anodizing
- Compatible with standard AR-15 lower receivers and pistol platforms
- Quick-detach sling attachment points on both sides
- Tool-free adjustment mechanism for rapid deployment changes
- Textured contact surfaces prevent slippage during use
Field performance demonstrates reliable function across temperature extremes from -20°F to 140°F. The brace maintains zero retention through repeated adjustments and withstands recoil forces from standard 5.56/.223 loads. Competition shooters report improved transition speeds in close-quarters scenarios, while the compact profile excels in vehicle-based applications where space constraints matter.
