Those are looking good. I like the shape of the "ports".

I have a muzzle brake made by the late Kurt of Kurt's Kustom, those that have been on arfcom for a long time should remember him fondly. It too has the oval, tapered slots of the Stoner 63, that was back in 2001 or 2002. It's loud and obnoxious as most brakes are, and likes to vibrate loose items till they've fallen off the table.
Which is not what 6315 will be doing. Like many, I've come a full circle with the choice of muzzle devices. I still like all of them comps, brakes, and fancy (read: expensive) flash suppressors for what they do and their workmanship, but I've come to appreciate the A2 for its simplicity and effectiveness.
The 6310 (308 version) will not be longer than the 6315. AR10 A2 is 2", 6315 is 1.80". Since we're not changing anything except the threading and bullet exit hole diameter, 6310 will probably follow 6315 fairly quickly to market.
AR10 A2 isn't compatible with M16 BFAs (too long, and the grooves on the AR10 A2 are out of spec ), both the 6315 and 6310 will be.Last edited by Duffy; 16 January 2017 at 16:07.

Rich, SS and Ti are both options. I have an internal debate, I don't think either side has all the right answers.
I want to get rid of all the life style fashion stuff from our lineup (we don't have many, just products that are shiny), but they sell well, pay the bills and development of other products. Customers do ask for them when they're out of stock, so I know there's a demand for it.
I don't want Forward Controls to be associated with fashion choices, but we have to keep the lights on too....

I've always wanted a NiB coated muzzle device. I like how it discolors the BCG the more you shoot it. It would be like Hypercolor clothes that changed color when you sweated.

When SHOT is over we'll get cranking and finish the 4130 version. Ti and SS aren't ruled out, and at least one is likely to make it :)

I like SS for muzzle devices over Ti, reason being I think the weight savings vs cost in a muzzle device isn't there.

So are you doing phosphated carbon steel, or DLC stainless?

That 4310 is a high chromium steel IIRC. I wonder how they would hold up with a blasted or polished finish?

Correction, the material is 4130, as specified by TDP.
A crush washer is included. We can't very well advise not to re-use a crush washer on the instruction card, and not include a new one
