The TacFire Crown Muzzle Brake in .223/5.56 (brand part no. MZ1024) is a compact steel brake built to tame muzzle rise on AR-15 rifles without adding much length or weight. TacFire machines it from steel and finishes it in black nitride for corrosion resistance, then threads it 1/2×28 to fit the standard .223/5.56 muzzle pattern. It ships with a crush washer included, so timing the brake to your barrel is a straightforward install. At 100% USA made, this brake is a budget-friendly upgrade over a bare A2 flash hider for shooters who want flatter follow-up shots.
