Gemtech 5.56 ETM Muzzle Brake, 1/2-28

This Gemtech muzzle brake (brand part no. 13816) is built for reliable alignment with Gemtech’s ETM-equipped suppressors, measuring 2.375 inches and pre-dimpled for a gunsmith to pin and weld it to a 14.5-inch barrel, bringing the total length up to the legal 16-inch rifle minimum. Gemtech designs the ETM interface to virtually eliminate the carbon lock-up that can occur between a muzzle device and suppressor after sustained firing. This Class 3 accessory is an ordinary Title I muzzle device, not a suppressor itself.
