Questions & Answers
Will this product work on a 8” 300 BLK barrel? Expert Answer

Yes, it should work for your barrel.

by Robert G., Gear Expert, October 4, 2019
My ar-9 is threaded in 1/2 x 28, better safe than sorry. Can I fire 9mm through hate brake stating it’s for 5.56? Expert Answer

No, the 1/2x28 Maxim Defense Industries AR-15 Hate Brake Muzzle Booster will not work with 9mm as its bore is not large enough to accommodate it.

Maximum Defense Hate Brake by Jimi B, November 5, 2021
If you want a AR type compensator that puts out ZERO flash, this is for you. I usually don’t get too excited about all the new bolt on accessories but this is does what it claims and exceeded my expectations. Well done Maxim Defense!

works great by hyper33, Verified Owner, August 25, 2021
Works great on my 7.5" ar 308. This is a better and lighter option than any muzzle blast deflector. The design actually has a chamber like a krink or noveske flaming pig which captures some of the muzzle flash. Only thing is if you want it to sit und...

Hate Brake by AJW151, Verified Owner, February 22, 2022
Perfect fit and quality. As described in detail. Using on a 5 inch slr barrel. Couldn’t ask for a better shot. Need more characters so I’ll tell you the blast is minimal fireball is shot forward people to the side will still be upset.

OpticsPlanet shipped me a 5/8-24 threaded inner brake piece for this muzzle device (which fits), but a ½x28 outer shroud - which won't fit on my 300blk barrel. I contacted Maxim Defense for a sanity check before reaching out to OpticsPlanet for a re...

Product Info for Maxim Defense Industries AR-15 Hate Brake Muzzle Booster

Product Info for Maxim Defense Industries AR-15 Hate Brake Muzzle Boosterimage

A common problem in short barrel PDWs with low-pressure cartridges is reliable cycling. Maxim Defense Hate Brake muzzle booster is designed to regulate firearm exhaust gases to ensure PDWs cycle more reliably.

The primary design features include the redirection of the sound signature, decreasing the flash signature, significantly reducing recoil, and increasing accuracy.

The HATE BRAKE installs with a 3/8 drive socket from the front, enabling it to be installed under a handguard without removing the handguard. During installation, the HATE BRAKE locks into place with K-Taper, a patent-pending taper locking technology, replacing the need for proprietary tapered barrels. The external shape of the HATE BRAKE is designed to work with M-Slot compatible hand guards.
