The Spikes Tactical R2 Muzzle Brake (brand part number SBV1065) is built for 5.56x45mm NATO AR-15 barrels threaded 1/2-28, cutting felt recoil and muzzle climb so shooters can get back on target faster between shots. Spikes Tactical machines the brake from 416R stainless steel and finishes it in black nitride for corrosion resistance and long-term wear durability. The R2’s port geometry is designed specifically to redirect propellant gas for muzzle control, which pays off most in rapid strings of fire, whether that’s a 3-gun stage or a fast follow-up shot on a moving target. It’s a proven, no-nonsense upgrade over a standard A2 birdcage for shooters chasing faster splits.
