Got this for a AR15/AR9 custom build with a 16 inch barrel. It did significantly reduce the recoil, but offset with a bit more noise.
Pros:
- Recoil and rise virtually eliminated
Cons:
- loud and substantial muzzle blast
Would recommend: Yes

Yankeehill Machine is a company that knows what is doing. Not kidding, they do. This muzzle break has the quality and finish I was looking for, BUT most importantly it works wonders. The gasses are so evenly dispersed I would say the recoil is the same and possibly less than my 556 that runs with a flash hider. I totally love this product and to too it off, it wasn’t a bank breaker!!
Would recommend: Yes

Used this on a 9mm AR build, fit perfectly onto the properly threaded barrel and managed to get it lined up straight with the provided crush washer. Much bigger than I anticipated it would look, but it does give the rifle a pretty aggressive look. It's not especially good at reducing recoil on this type of build, however, because there's relatively little gas coming out the barrel compared to a rifle cartridge, and also because of the direct blowback system. Would likely be much more effective on a 6.8 or 7.62 rifle.
All in all, a well made, nice looking muzzle attachment. Definitely not a necessary upgrade though - would not recommend purchasing solely for recoil reduction on a pistol caliber build!
Pros:
- Looks great
- well made
- High quality
- fits
Best Used for:
- Aesthetics
- Rifle caliber ARs
Would recommend: Yes

Awesome, This Brake actually works. I shoot competitively and needed a brake that will reduce muzzle rise, This brake was suggested to me from a fellow shooter. Its a little heavy when you first feel it, but that's part of what makes it work so well. This brake is exactly what I needed for my AR-9.
Would recommend: Yes
