The other muzzle brakes with suppressor mounts feel about the same, or even slightly worse.įor a muzzle brake with a suppressor mount, this muzzle brake is outstanding. I will say this, though: the only muzzle brakes that offer better recoil reduction are dedicated muzzle brakes. However, there are dedicated muzzle brakes that perform better. In terms of recoil reduction, this is a good muzzle brake. My observations here are pretty straightforward. No matter what you want to do with your suppressor, SilencerCo makes one that will fit the bill.Īll in all, the ASR mount gets two thumbs up from me. Being restricted to using SilencerCo suppressors isn’t really a limitation. However, SilencerCo makes awesome suppressors. Obviously, you can only use SilencerCo suppressors with the ASR system (there may be other manufacturers that produce ASR compatible suppressors. So, in short, I’m convinced that the ASR suppressor mount is an amazing mounting system. But it takes a lot of abusive shooting to lock up the ASR mount. And the operation is almost always flawless, despite how badly we beat them up and how often we burn them down on full-auto guns.
I know that this is a sample size of one.īut we use a lot of SilencerCo suppressors on rental guns at the range. And the ASR mount still works! We didn’t even have an issue removing the suppressor after getting it hot enough to melt the muzzle device. And it’s nearly impossible to get a false positive with the locking mechanism.Īlso, referring again to the ASR Flash Hider we melted, we melted an ASR muzzle device. That’s about as much as you can ask for from a muzzle brake. And it requires very little cleaning and maintenance. Putting my minor gripe aside, the fit and finish on this muzzle brake is outstanding. So I might have this complaint about any other muzzle brake. Timing muzzle devices with shims is always kind of a pain. That’s all I’m saying.Įither way, my one complaint about the fit is pretty minor. It might just be a slight mismatch between the threading on the brake and the threading on certain barrels.īut you don’t have these sorts of issues with a crush washer. And this hasn’t been an issue with every ASR muzzle brake I’ve installed. And I ended up having to pretty much overtorque the muzzle brake to get it properly timed. Either the shims were too thick or too thin. My problem with this muzzle brake is that I’ve occasionally found it difficult to time the muzzle brake with the included shims. So why not use crush washers for muzzle brakes?īut I digress. You can use a crush washer for a compensator, though. If it’s necessary to use shims for a muzzle brake, so be it. And I’ve never had a muzzle device that’s mounted with a crush washer come loose. I find it much easier to time a muzzle device with a crush washer. I don’t know if shims are a requirement for muzzle brakes. My only complaint about the fit is the shims. This muzzle device threaded on super smoothly and easily. The threading is incredibly smooth and well finished. The next aspect of the fit and finish that I noticed is the threading for mounting the muzzle brake to your barrel.
