Well, in my undying quest to figure out the ultimately quickest, simplest, cheapest way to securely and effectively put a muzzle brake on my AK, I read into this..
"AK-47 RIFLE MUZZLE BRAKE WEIGHT:4.55 OZ LENGTH: 3.3" LONG COLOR: BLACK This muzzle brake comes with a Limited Lifetime Warranty. The brake reduces recoil up to 50- 70% and reduces muzzle climb up to 60-90%. made for AK 7.62x39 caliber. The brake pins on to barrel and locks in place using the retaining pin. The brake reduces muzzle climb by directing gas upward through 2 gas ports. The recoil is diminished by four 45° gas ports which direct gas at a 45° angle away from the weapon and a contoured flat at the end of the brake directs gas sideways. The two gas streams cancel each other and absorb the force of recoil. This is one of the highest quality AK brake on the market today at a great price."
Pin on muzzle brake.. Am I correct in thinking that these do not #1 need threads on my barrel, #2 need an adapter, and #3 need any kinda welding and whatnot? I don't mind welding/silver soldering stuff, but it's probably gunna cost a bunch of $ to get a smith to thread my barrel, it'd cost about 80-100$ to buy the tools to do it myself, and a new barrel is what I was thinking about right now as I need a drill press anyway and a new barrel wouldn't hurt anything.
Also, if "correct" is the answer to #1 2 and preferably 3, is it a secure mounting system, and is it even worth having to begin with?
