Made from heat-treated 17-4 precipitation-hardened stainless steel, the Hellfire Self Timing Muzzle Brake, from Area 419, utilizes a universal adapter that fixes to the muzzle via a 5/8” wrench, allowing users to install, adjust and remove the brake from the adapter for cleaning by way of a knurled, tool-less locking ring. Area 419 wisely includes index marks on the unit’s muzzle end for expedient alignment. Two internal baffles with rearward-facing angles channel expanding gases to mitigate recoil, resulting in eyes kept more consistently on target during operation. The unit can be ordered for calibers ranging from 0.223 to 0.338, with accommodation for most imperial- and metric-sized muzzle threads. Black Nitride or raw-stainless finishes are available for $165. For more information, please visit area419.com.
