I have a WASR10 and when I removed the welded on muzzle brake the barrell is smooth and smaller than the Tapco 14x1 LH muzzle brake. Will this work?

I had same issue in my sks because i cuz it down except mine was to large had to mill it down what i did was used a strong drill bit and made 4 dimples for the screw points to grap and used thread lock its worked flawless just be sure to line the adaptor with barrel or risk sending it down range with a round

It will work. It must be centered and welded. The screws will not hold the adapter on when firing, it will fly off.Tack weld it in three places at least.

My SAR-1 also came with a unthreaded barrel. Alot of the Romanian AKs actually have a smaller diameter barrel after the gas block. My thread adapter fit a little loosely, but not to bad. Im really happy with my thread adapter. After i drilled some dimples and used some blue loctite on the set screws it hasn't moved yet.

This will work . Thing is I would recommend using a dowel rod to make sure it's straight before tightening . Second if you have access to a mug welder you can weld it in place this is what I did . Over all this should work for you either way but to make it real secure I recomend the welding or brazing method .

I don't believe the barrel was drilled and tapped on a 15 year old model from the factory. It has the same barrel contour as the newer ones that are tapped, so the base would work but you would need a gunsmith to drill and tap a few holes. The holes are located under the rear sight, so if you remove it you can tell right away if the holes are there.

If the barrel doesn't have a vented rib it should work. Pictures I've seen look to be okay, but I'm not familiar enough to know how all the models are configured. Hope that helps.

Juan: If your barrel is straight rather than slightly tapered coming out of the gas block, this one should fit fine. I really like this strut, it balances the Mini out and puts the weight slightly forward. Make sure and use the locktite provided. When you drill the very small recesses for the allen head screws in the gas block make sure and center punch them first, or your drill bit WILL WALK AND SCREW IT UP !. Drill only as deep as the nose on the allen screw. Don't use a cheap drill bit, if you don't have a carbide drill bit, a cobalt bit from home depot will work. Take your time.

Absolutely. It will clamp forward of the taper on the barrel. (forward of what the picture shows). Had one on my newer mini 14 and loved it.

The two small holes go on top and the large slits on the side.Depending on how the muzzle was threaded you may have to file the crush washer down.The crush washer will collapse a long way and get flat to the barrel and the brake.If it has got to the point you can't turn it any more then you need a new washer and then file it down a bit or buy a shim kit.I have yet not had one that could not be timed by filing the crush washer a few thousands of an inch.

Yes, it will but you need to 1. Remove the shroud or 2.mod the barrel. Look up on Google for the mod, it's simple : electric tape and patience. Looks very good modded and the shroud

This Brake is made for a 22/10 slip on barrel with no threads. Might damage the threads on your barrel.

You don't, but it's kinda weird you are shopping for a muzzle brake but don't know why? I use mine for training purposes...we train with 10-22's modified to look and feel like AR-15's to save ammo costs. It give our 10-22's added barrel length, and the look and feel of a AR. So when shooters pick up an AR they are more familiar. Technically the muzzle brake does reduce muzzle flash on the 10-22, but not much, most of it is out the action. Some claim it also helps with barrel jump/accuracy when shooting consecutive shots. I can attest to that. Your mileage may differ.

This muzzle brake is made to clamp onto the barrel using the front sight base to prevent it from being eventually pulled off by the gases from firing. I never tried this unit on a barrel without a front sight. You may consider having it silver-soldered in place, which would still cost much less than having the barrel threaded for a screw-on type brake. But, to just clamp it on, it may work itself loose after some firing. I just don't know for sure.

As long as your barrel has nothing on the end of it but the small brass bead sight, it will work. But if your specific model has a barrel with a rib running down the top or a tall A-frame type front sight, it will not work.

Mine is installed on a Mossberg 715T and I did not remove it to measure but here is what I found with it mounted: My barrel measures .635 so the ID of the NcStar Ruger 10/22 Long Muzzle Brake should be around .640 where it slips over the barrel. You asked about the OD of the muzzle brake and that measures .868 on the barrel end. Hope this helps.

I believe it will, as far as I know the military barrel is not larger at the action than my commercial barrel. I believe the step-down in the barrel leaving a larger gap between barrel and stock after it steps down will be your only drawback. That being said however, I am no expert in this matter, and this is only my opinion based on my understanding of the barrel diameter at the action. I hope this has been some help.

The most correct answer is "it depends". If the Vepr has the common muzzle style which is outside threaded to 22x0.75mm right hand this brake should fit it fine. However, to achieve compliance in some states Veprs have been sold without a threaded muzzle or with a permanently welded flash suppressor. This brake is not for use with such units.

you could cut the ported piece off just past the redirect threads and do away with muzzle brake end. looks like the makings for a silencer. looks real good on a Ruger 22-45 MKIII with threaded barrel

yes, its exactuly what i put this muzzle brake on and it fits perfectly and works wonders with the rifle its self.

It Should, Only The Barrel Is Shorter. Mine Is Rock Solid But Does Leave Minor Scratches. But Its Stainless So They Polish Out Easily.
