The Spikes Tactical Barking Spider2 muzzle brake (brand part number SAKB0100) is a 5.56 NATO muzzle device built to redirect noise, blast, and concussion downrange and away from the shooter. CNC machined from billet 4140 chromoly bar stock, it uses a cutting-edge blast cone design supported at both the front and rear, a detail Spikes points out as unique among Krinkov-style brakes since it keeps the cone from sagging under extended, high-round-count strings of fire. The body is ball-dimpled to shed weight and help dissipate heat, pre-drilled for pinning to a barrel, and finished in a heat-treated Black Nitride QPQ coating for corrosion resistance. It threads onto 1/2-28 muzzles chambered in .223 Remington/5.56 NATO.
