Abstract
A flash-suppressing muzzle brake for a firearm has a body defining a substantially cylindrical inner chamber and an open front end. A conical element is received in the inner chamber and has an open front end and a rear end that defines a conical bore. A mounting element has threads adapted to mate with threads on the body and an interior surface that receives the front end of the conical element. A first flash chamber is situated at the rear end of the conical element and has circumferentially-spaced openings and a central passageway providing fluid communication between the first flash chamber and the conical bore. A second flash suppression chamber is defined by the external surface of the conical element, the cylindrical interior surface portion of the body, and the rear portion of the body. Radial openings allow fluid communication of muzzle gases between the first and second flash chambers.
