24mm AK Series Muzzle Brake
I own a KR-103 Fixed stock (so I can play furniture with AKM parts). The rifle comes with an already impressive AK74 style muzzle brake, but I wanted a short muzzle brake for better muzzle control. Even with full 16" AK barrel length, the range officers keep harassing me because nearby shooters are getting smacked like children when I use my rifle. It became such an issue that a regular patron bought me a Jmac LAF-24 just to spear his lungs ( I use wolf HP)
So, I got this for my rifle because I wanted to change the look of my AK pistol, and wasn't a fan of the Krink style. I was a little worried my rifle wouldn't cycle well because of the lack of dwell time, but it runs great. I suppose that's more a comment on the rifle than the brake though. The brake looks awesome. Kind of my my short little guy look like a bull dog. The recoil is also super light, but be prepared to shoot flames like you've never seen before. I knew it would, seeing as how it's a 10.5" 7.62, but man, I didn't know how much. For my purposes, I love it, because for me, this is just a fun little range toy, however, if you're doing any night time shooting, especially under NVGs, or you plan to use it indoors, around other people, or in any sort of defensive situation, you can decide if it's right for you. It really does blind you for a split second, but man, it's fun!

Using on a saiga .308 SBR, really effective in controlling recoil, and puts out a nice thump.
This brake is simple and short. It worked very good at taming the muzzle rise and flash. It keeps the over all length down on the rifle. The only draw back is that it has side pressure, but it is a brake so that was expected. I really like the brake and now own two.
