Do I need a crush washer with this muzzle brake. Featured Answer

Yes a crush washer is needed to properly install this muzzle brake, it clocks the gas ports correctly and takes the gap out between the barrel treaded end and the back end of the muzzle brake. The crush washer comes with this unit so install and torque muzzle brake to spec, verify the ports align properly top holes at 12 O'clock side ports at 3 and 9..........now go play!

Helpful Positive Review Great Addition to my AR by broken sticks, March 1, 2020
I put this on my Ruger AR 556. Wow, what a difference. With the stock flash hider, I was puting 1 inch groups at 25 yards (stock sights). The Fortis R.E.D. muzzle brake, not only reduced recoil and muzzle rise, it improved the accuracy. Now, I'm ...

Helpful Positive Review Easier shooting by Bill, July 25, 2023
I just took my AR15 to the range after installing the Fortis Muzzle Brake. I fired three rounds and retrieved the target. Dead center with two keyholes. There is zero muzzle rise and recoil is almost non existent. I thought the blast would be louder....

Helpful Positive Review Wow! Fortis R.E.D. is fantastic. by broken sticks, December 22, 2018
Got the Fortis R.E.D. 5.56. Looks great & works great! It keeps me on target and isn't as loud as other muzzle brakes. It is louder than a flash hider. It didn't change my point of impact on my AR. Bought another Fortis R.E.D. 9mm, for my pc car...
