Muzzle Brake is a weapon attachment designed to redirect the weapon’s propellant gases horizontally with the effect of lowering the muzzle climb of the weapon. When using the muzzle brake the gun is easier and more accurate to use. Muzzle Brakes were originally made for artillery and anti-tank guns, and have been adapted for use with various rifles and handguns.
Combinent has designed muzzle break for 12.7mm NSV machine gun. This muzzle break type has been approved by Finnish Defence Forces and is today in use in every 12.7mm NSV machine gun in Finland.
