The Springfield Armory M1A Muzzle Brake (brand part number MA5049) is a black steel muzzle device built specifically for the Springfield Armory M1A rifle chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO (.308 Winchester). It threads onto the barrel with 5/8-24 tpi threads and redirects powder gases as the round exits the muzzle, dramatically cutting felt recoil and muzzle flip shot to shot. That translates directly into faster follow-up shots and a more controllable rifle on the range or in competition. Finished in black steel to match the M1A’s factory look, it’s a direct-fit upgrade purpose-built for this platform, no adapters or modifications needed.
