[QUOTE="dirtball, post: 448846, member: 7344"] [FONT="Comic Sans MS"][SIZE="3"]Trying to find a brake that is effective and quiet is like trying to find a 6 passenger car that will do 0 to 60 in 2.1 seconds AND get you 50 mpg, AIN'T going to happen. What makes a brake effective is how much of the muzzle blast can be deflected in some direction other than forward, sideways is GOOD, angled slightly to the rear is BETTER for recoil reduction, BUT the more effective the brake is, the LOUDER it is. As for screw on brakes, they are the ONLY type I would use, I can not imagine trying to clean a barrel with a brake on it,, what a mess that would be. When mine start to look dirty and cruddy I put them in the Ultrasonic cleaner for a few cycles and wala the are new and shiny. Dave [/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
