Purchased the Q Cherry Bomb for .45, .578-28. There are not many options for this twist and caliber, but I was glad to take a chance on the Cherry Bomb, and it did not disappoint. I have a Plan B on an Omega 45k, and this and a 3lug were possibilities. What I like about this is that I can fire my weapon without the suppressor and still enjoy some of the benefits of a muzzle brake. Additionally, when I take off and place the can on the firearm, it maintains consistent alignment, with zero shift in the point of impact.

When using, make sure that you have your Thunder Chicken or Trash Panda mounted to it. If you fire this with no can, the gas and subsequent dust cloud goes in all directions. I bought 2,and I have one on my 18" Christiansen .308, and one on my 7" .300 Blackout. I'm happy with mine and it's less expensive thanks to Optics Planet .

The Cherry Bomb isn’t just a muzzle device — it’s a whole system upgrade. At just over an inch long and weighing next to nothing, it delivers surprisingly effective recoil reduction and serves as the perfect foundation for Q’s Quickie Fast-Attach suppressor mounts.
Installation couldn’t be easier. No shims, no timing, no stress. Just torque it with a 1/2" socket and you’re done. The tapered shoulder ensures perfect alignment for your suppressor every time, and eliminates carbon lock — which is a game-changer if you’re running something like the Thunder Chicken, Trash Panda, or Erector 9.
Even unsuppressed, it performs well. The 360° port design gives it just enough brake effect without obnoxious blast. But the real power of the Cherry Bomb is how seamlessly it integrates into Q’s ecosystem — modularity, simplicity, and performance all in one stubby little beast.

First, This device installed easily with a 1/2" socket. That was a nice change form wrenching on the outside of such devices.
Secondly, It worked well as a host. Good thread as well as a good diameter.
Cons:
- Color - would prefer Black

I bought this to go on my 8.6 Blackout. It was very easy to install and fit perfect. Mates up to suppressor and works together as should. I will be buying more products from Q in the future.

This was great. The manufacturer was actually out. So going to optic planet and getting it for less was even better. And I didn’t have to wait several weeks for the manufacturer to make more..
