Custom brake

[Grizz1148]

Anyone know who I could contact to have a custom brake built for my gun. Google search just brings up brake manufacturers that pre build standard brakes. I have a special need lol.

Do you have a design and some of the dimensions that a machinist can work with?

Muzzle brakes, by design, are fairly simple to machine when they are based on a cylinder. But the companies making muzzle brakes to sell are busy on their machines making their own designs. A custom muzzle brake is a one-of-a-kind and can get to be a little pricey.

The people to contact are the gunsmiths who will take on the project and fit it into their schedule.

I wouldn't expect the price of commonly available muzzle brakes since this is only one.

Good Luck!

Do a search on muzzle brakes, then contact them and tell them what you need. Someone should be able to help you out.

I have and the regular manufacturers couldn't help. They said they won't change things for 1 brake

I do, it's fairly simple but diff threads than most make. This thread came from a highly respected builder who also makes brakes but doesn't have the design I want. Now I'm stuck with these threads that almost no one else uses

What about just getting a thread adapter?

What's the thread pitch?

Everyone has a price. The question is, are you willing to pay it? I think there are a lot of CNC machinists that would make a single brake but the cost would be a deal killer, IMO.

 

[Grizz1148]

I'm willing to pay a reasonable price. I've asked the known top brake makers with no luck.

11/16x32 it's also .45 cal

You probably have enough meat to rethread the barrel to something normal. 5/8-24 is commonly used for 458 SOCOM. You could also go the other way and have a 5/8-24 brake bored out and threaded 11/16-32.
