In my opinion this style brake is an upgrade worthy of the $58 (if not more) they're charging for it. It's the best 24mm AK brake I've used thus far.
Pros:
-Recoil reduction
-Faster follow up shots
-Looks great (one man's opinion)
-Increase in velocity
-Gas is directed to the side and back so shooters on your left and right will not get as much muzzle blast as they would with a traditional AK 74 style brake
-Quieter from the perspective of the shooter
Cons:
-Slightly longer (maybe 1/2'')
I don't have a working digital scale at the moment so I can't compare weight but it feels roughly the same as the SGL 31 brake.
Chronograph data with 60gr FMJ Silver Bear ammo:
No Brake: 2912fps
SGL Brake: 2924fps
SRVV Jet Brake: 3072fps
Roughly 150fps faster with the Jet brake.

Mr GnG... apparently the Russian website is still out of stock on the 5.45 breaks.. did you state that these were coming stateside for distribution thru a US partner???
ReplyDeleteYes. Circle10AK should have them shortly. I know there's a huge demand for them currently so if you'd like one I recommend you shoot them an email to see if you can reserve a spot.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to take the power of thanking you for that specialized guidance I've constantly enjoyed viewing your blog.
