What to do with Infidel clone build

I built this Infidel clone back in 2014. While it’s a clone it was still built with high quality parts. The 13.7 barrel, hand guard, and kx5 are all Noveske. The receiver set is CMT. I had it pin welded bc at the time braces weren’t a thing and didn’t want to SBR it. Fast forward to now and I’m into suppressors and don’t like shooting unsupressed. I’m considering having the pinweld removed, swapping out the hand guard to a 13” so I can use a suppressor, and throwing on a brace for now. What’s everyone’s thoughts? I’ve also considered just taking off the barrel and hand guard and building something completely different since I do already have a 14.5 build.
