Most Helpful Positive Review Dragons Breath
It's loud, shoots fire out the sides, looks and sounds amazing! Feel like a Khaleesi riding a dragon into battle and vanquish your enemies! I can proudly call my Rifle "Mother of Dragons" with this Muzzle! Easy to install and it fits great!
Most Helpful Negative Review Revealed of product
The product was a great price and works well. The only ting is shipping is very slow I mean really so. Other then that it was a good product at a good price. I will buy more in the future but I will plan on it taking 4 weeks to get it.

Keeps gun on target

by Scott, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on April 8, 2024
Keeps follow up shots closer and more accurate. Louder concussion and you can feel the blowback, but it's worth it!
Pros:
  • Faster follow-up shots. Let's recoil. Safer for the frame.
Cons:
  • The blowback
Best Used for:
  • Pew pew pewing
Would recommend: Yes

Almost no muzzle rise

by Scott, Verified Owner from TX, United States Written on March 27, 2024
Can definitely feel the recoil reduction and muzzle rise. Follow up shots are a lot quicker and groups are tighter. You can feel the concussion a little more and sometimes you see the ball of flame. All in all, does what it's meant to do at a good price.
Pros:
  • Less recoil and muzzle rise
Cons:
  • A bit louder and more fire than A2
Best Used for:
  • Pew pewing
Would recommend: Yes

Great Muzzle

by Wright2u, Verified Owner from FL, United States Written on March 16, 2023
Perfect fit for my AR-15, Now less movement and better control reaquiring target after firing, although rifle is louder and I am ok with that. No sppecial tools required to remove original brake or to screw on and secure this one I highly recommend the Midwest Idustries Muzzle Brake.
Pros:
  • Perfect Fit
Cons:
  • Louder Sounding than OEM
Best Used for:
  • weapon control
Would recommend: Yes

great product

by Mike Roush, from OK, United States Written on April 15, 2019
Couldn't be more pleased. Great price, easy to install. Bought 2 for AR15s chambered in 5.56. Put one on a 16.5" bbl and one on a 10.5" bbl. Could instantly tell a difference in muzzle rise and recoil. Took the 16.5" AR hog hunting that evening and got 2 hogs. Both showed up together under the feeder. The shot on the first one was easy but the tale of the tape was how easy the follow up shot on the second one was, which had darted off after the first shot rang out. 2 shots, 2 hogs down.

great product and fast shipping

by ben, from CA, United States Written on January 26, 2018
I bought quite a lot of products in Optics Planet. This is one of great product. It shipped fast. I replaced my 2 AR 15 flash hiders for featureless to get California compliance. Easy to install and good quality and reasonable price. I will highly recommend it.

A lot of bang for the buck

by JAM, from OH, United States Written on July 23, 2017
It's amazing what people will pay for AR accessories. They're more worried about what looks good first because they really don't shoot they just want to look what they think is cool. Real men want what works first and if we can do that for a good price that's just more money to buy ammo!! The funny thing is that this muzzle brake works and looks great!

Mid West Industries

by StarLord, from CA, United States Written on February 3, 2017
Make your Riffle Great Again this muzzle break is a proven design that works even though companies try to make and redesign some weird muzzle breaks. When you look at the 50 bmg Barret Riffle the military has been using this exact pattern of muzzel break to lesson the recoil and properly vent gasses from the barrel, allowing the bullet flight to be even more stable as it leaves your riffle. So I'm a happy camper hope you enjoy yours
Pros:
  • All 5 Stars
Cons:
  • nothing
Best Used for:
  • Pew pew pew
