SRS Lever Action Brake

Depending on the weight of the firearm and the specific load used, the .45-70 Gov’t. cartridge generates a level of recoil that can be daunting for many shooters, but an effective muzzle device like the Salmon River Solutions Lever Action Brake can go a long way toward taming the big-bore.

Measuring 2.5" long with a 1" outer diameter, the three-port brake weighs just 2 ozs. thanks to its corrosion-resistant 6AL-4V titanium construction, and 11/16x24 TPI threads allow it to be used aboard many .45-cal. rifle designs.

Timing properly to the host gun via an adjustable nut, we found the appearance of the Lever Action Brake paired particularly well with the stainless finishes on Marlin’s SBL and Trapper variants of the Model 1895.

MSRP is $200. For more information, visit salmonriversolutions.com.
