Spikes Tactical R2 Muzzle Brake 5.56 NATO 1/2x28 Black Nitride

The Spikes Tactical SBV1065 R2 Muzzle Brake delivers superior recoil reduction and muzzle control for 5.56x45mm NATO rifles. Constructed from 416R stainless steel with a black nitride finish, this brake significantly reduces felt recoil and muzzle rise during rapid fire sequences.

What Makes This Different

The R2 design features strategically positioned ports that redirect propellant gases upward and to the sides, creating downward force to counter muzzle climb. Unlike standard A2 flash hiders that primarily hide flash, this brake prioritizes recoil management and follow-up shot speed. The 416R stainless steel construction provides exceptional corrosion resistance while maintaining structural integrity under high round counts.

Key Features

• 416R stainless steel construction with black nitride coating for maximum durability
• 1/2"-28 TPI threading fits standard 5.56x45mm NATO barrel threads
• Multi-port design reduces recoil by up to 40% compared to standard flash hiders
• Black nitride finish resists corrosion and reduces maintenance requirements
• Precision-machined ports ensure consistent gas redirection and performance
• Compatible with most AR-15 platform rifles chambered in 5.56 NATO/.223 Remington
• Crush washer included for proper timing and installation

Competitive shooters and tactical operators benefit from the brake's ability to keep the rifle on target during rapid fire strings. The upward gas redirection effectively counters the natural muzzle rise of the 5.56 cartridge, allowing faster target reacquisition. Weather resistance from the nitride coating ensures reliable performance in adverse conditions, while the stainless steel core maintains dimensional stability across temperature extremes.
