Smyth Busters: Do You Need a Muzzle Brake on an AR-15?

"Only sissy girls put a muzzle brake on an AR!" That's what a certain faction of the AR-15 fraternity says. The 5.56 NATO / .223 round generates so little recoil and muzzle rise, their reasoning goes, real men don't need a muzzle brake. Not so fast, say Brownells Gun Techs™ Steve and Caleb, reducing felt recoil and muzzle rise is always a good thing. In rapid-fire shooting, a muzzle brake will help you keep the muzzle down and stay on target. The less recovery time between shots, the MORE shots you can land on the target accurately. You can also SEE where your shots are landing. From varmint hunters to competition shooters, being able to keep the crosshairs on the target in case you need a follow-up shot is a big benefit. One drawback of muzzle brakes is they tend to make the sound of the muzzle blast louder. But isn't that what hearing protection is for? In life, you make tradeoffs to get benefits all the time. So the myth is BUSTED. A muzzle brake IS useful on an AR-15.
