AR-10 Muzzle Brake


Smith Enterprise .308 VORTEX FLASH HIDER

This is the standard by which all other flash hiders are judged. Four, specially angled flutes hide nearly 100% muzzle flash, even during full-auto fire, by dissipating gas and retaining unburned powder for increased residual burn. Constructed of the same 8620 bar stock steel used in the manufacture of AR-15/M16 bolts and carriers, then heat-treated to provide a high-strength core and tough, outer shell. Special, helix design helps align exiting barrel gas to improve accuracy with all bullet types. Streamlined unit reduces muzzle flash with four, 15° helical flutes. Provides Vortex technology for an AR-10.

SPECS: 8620 steel. Parkerized, black, matte finish. 5⁄8″-24 tpi. 2-11⁄16″ (6.8cm) long, .905″ (2.3cm) dia. 3.9 oz. (112g) weight. Fits Rem 700 Tactical and AR-10 in .308 Win.


VLTOR VC-301

 

Highly-efficient internal helical design uses ten precisely contoured longitudinal ports combined with a unique, cloverleaf-shaped exit port to trap unburned powder particles long enough for full burn and dissipation of hot combustion gasses. Muzzle flash cancels itself out to minimize shooter exposure during daytime and low-light situations. Also serves as a compensator by directing venting gasses to help reduce muzzle jump and improve shooter control for better shot placement. Precision machined from 4140 steel to stand up to rough tactical operations. 2-1/8″ overall length brings a 14½” barrel up to legal length for civilian use when flash suppressor is permanently pinned or welded in place. Accepts most sound suppressors and Blank Firing Attachments designed to fit a M16/M4 flash hider. VC-1 fits .223/5.56mm AR-15/M16/M4 rifles; VC-301 fits .308/7.62mm AR-style rifles.

Brownells .308 TACTICAL FLASH SUPPRESSOR

Low-profile, screw-on flash suppressor meets the needs of the most demanding tactical and competition shooters. Developed by Brownells’ in-house engineering team with plenty of input from the many dedicated shooters on our staff to give you a powerful flash suppressor that also helps reduce muzzle rise. Disperses combustion gases through five longitudinal vents to reduce the blinding, football-sized fireball of an unsuppressed rifle to a low-intensity golf ball sized burst. Greatly lowers the chance of muzzle flash giving away the operator’s position day or night, and helps preserve night vision. Vent walls are cut at an angle for maximum surface area to help cool gas and redirect it to counteract muzzle rise for fast follow-up shots. Solid underside prevents dust signature that can obscure the shooter’s view of the target or give away his position when shooting prone. Separate models available for rifles chambered in .223/5.56mm, .308/7.62mm, and 9mm. Unique “posthole digger” muzzle has cuts that form four chisel-points to provide a backup pain compliance weapon for hand-to-hand combat without creating unusually sharp projections that snag on other objects or cause unintentional injury during routine weapon handling. Precision machined from solid 4140 carbon steel bar stock and hardened to Rc 38-42 to resist blast erosion. Long-wearing, matte black oxide finish matches many factory barrel finishes.

SPECS: 4140 steel, black oxide finish, matte black. .223 – 23⁄8″ (6cm) long, .859″ (2.2cm) O.D. 3.3 oz. (94g) weight. ½”-28 tpi RH thread.

PWS CQB COMP 30

The PWS CQB COMP has to be the most expensive MUZZLE BRAKE available in 5.56 or .308. This is popular with SBR’s

PWS CQB COMP 308 MUZZLE BRAKE

From the manufacturer:

The CQB Comp, originally designed as part of the MK107 Rifle, provides as much compensation as possible while suppressing flash and sending all the blast forward of the shooter and those next to the shooter.

The CQB Comp features a 2 part design with a removable end cap for ease of cleaning. The primary function is to send all the blast forward while suppressing as much flash as possible. This product in no way compensates the weapon to the level of the FSC556 or our other comps, but it does serve the needs of those that requested its development.

CQB comps ship with the PWS Shim set, therefore additional mounting devices such as peel washers or crush washers are not required.

PWS CQB COMP 308 MUZZLE BRAKE

Aggressive, scallop-type cuts deliver superior gas dispersion to help stabilize the muzzle during periods of sustained fire. Special internal blast chamber with side-facing ports helps reduce recoil with no adverse effect on gas system function. Also provides enough flash suppression to keep flash out of the shooter’s line of sight.
