The Griffin Armament Paladin 2 Port Taper Mount Brake delivers precision recoil control for 6.5mm rifles while serving as a quick-detach mounting platform for Griffin suppressors. This dual-purpose muzzle device combines effective brake performance with the convenience of Griffin's proven taper mount system.
What Makes This Different
The Paladin 2 Port stands apart from standard muzzle brakes through its integrated taper mount interface, eliminating the need for separate brake and suppressor mount components. The 17-4 stainless steel construction with Black Melonite QPQ coating provides superior corrosion resistance compared to basic nitride finishes. Two strategically positioned ports redirect gases to reduce felt recoil by approximately 40% while maintaining compact 1.88-inch overall length.
Key Features
- Dual-function design serves as effective brake and suppressor mount
- 17-4 stainless steel construction with Black Melonite QPQ finish
- Two-port configuration optimized for 6.5mm cartridges
- Standard 5/8"-24 TPI threading fits most 6.5mm rifles
- Compact 1.07" diameter maintains barrel profile aesthetics
- Compatible with Griffin Armament taper mount suppressors
- Precision machined for consistent suppressor alignment
Field testing demonstrates significant muzzle rise reduction during rapid fire sequences, making this brake particularly effective for precision rifle competitions and hunting applications. The taper mount system allows suppressor attachment in under two seconds without tools, while maintaining zero shift within 0.5 MOA. The Melonite coating resists carbon fouling buildup better than standard phosphate finishes, requiring less frequent cleaning during high-volume shooting sessions.
