[QUOTE="SSgt G Cody, post: 2393691, member: 113303"] I have a friend who is a ballistics engineer with the German military. He tells me that they use mostly suppressors, not brakes, on most of their rifles. Larger magnum sniper rifles use small brakes with 60 degree (from barrel axis) array of ports on top half of barrel, which is surrounded by a 12 degree cone to vent most report volume forward, rather than to the side. Most countries now, worldwide, are severely banning brakes for hearing health reasons! [/QUOTE]
