High Performance Muzzle Brake for Eliminating Recoil

Not all muzzle devices are created the same. There aren't many muzzle brakes and compensators that 'understand' proper high-pressure gas dynamics. The VG6 GAMMA 556 was designed using state of the art engineering techniques, utilizing CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) and CAE (Computer Aided Engineering). 100% CNC machined for optimal performance.

Stainless steel construction for longevity.

The VG6 GAMMA 556 is a muzzle brake and compensator hybrid. It virtually eliminates recoil and minimizes muzzle movement.

The unique combination of both braking and compensating features inspire shooter confidence and allows the shooter to make very fast follow up shots.

The VG6 GAMMA 556 has been tuned for versatility as well. The brake has been optimized for 10.5" to 18.5" barrel lengths, but ultra-shorty SBRs and AR-Pistols with shorter barrels and full sized 20" rifles will benefit greatly from the muzzle brake as well.

I received a "sneak preview" of this comp/brake last month. Pretty good performer...flat shooting and not excessively loud.

Has anyone seen these brakes on a rifle that is customer owned? I see the videos and testimonials, but would like to get an opinion from a user, preferably compared to a BCM mod 0 and Battlecomp 1.5.

Stay tuned. The next batch apparently won't be ready for 2 weeks, so at that time I'll see if I can pick one up.

I'm just a cop who got one from a dealer as sales pitch swag....I put it on my BCM 16" middy.

I haven't shot any of those other brakes, but I did a 10yd mag dump on a head target at my last SWAT training day slick as could be with it. I was going to make a little vid in the near future...

Was it causing excessive concussion to the sides??

From behind the gun no...I haven't had any feedback from anyone next to me though.

How do you like this brake/Fh ?

I am slowly gathering parts and was just gonna grab another XTC from RA, but this is kinda interesting.

I have not shot it yet. Missed my opportunity on Monday. Will try to get to the range on Friday.

For a two port brake, it does what it is expected to do. Controls the muzzle, but concussive to anyone on the sides. For the price, I would get another if I needed a brake, but I normally reserve putting brakes only on guns that I will suppress.
