<em>Range Time</em> Quiz: <br>Muzzle Brake

Written by SSSF Staff on .

Congratulations to Tracy Miller, winner of last week's Range Time  quiz drawing! Tracy answered our question correctly and was drawn as the winner of an SPP Tactical Water Bottle from the SSSF Store. Last week's question and possible answers:
    What is reduced when a muzzle brake is added to a firearm?
    • Noise
    • Missed targets
    • Choke constriction
    • Recoil
    • Bore diameter
The correct answer is Recoil. Reducing recoil is the most common reason for adding a muzzle brake to a firearm. The downside is that it often increases noise. It does not involve choke constriction or bore diameter, and it may or may not help with missed targets. Watch next week's Range Time newsletter for another quiz question and your chance to win a prize.
