To me, it's not worth the risk and I will gladly pay the $200 tax stamp. Then you don't have to worry.
The ATF has ruled on this one:

Quote:
“To the extent the January 2015 Open Letter implied or has been construed to hold that incidental, sporadic, or situational ‘use’ of an arm-brace (in its original approved configuration) equipped firearm from a firing position at or near the shoulder was sufficient to constitute a ‘redesign,’ such interpretations are incorrect and not consistent with ATF’s interpretation of the statute or the manner in which it has historically been enforced.”
In other words, shouldering a pistol grip firearm fitted with a pistol brace, but not a collapsible buttstock, is perfectly fine.
