EVO CARBINE COMPENSATOR, 1/2X28 THREAD
« on: October 04, 2016, 10:53:51 AM »
Anyone try this thing yet?

Looks pretty sweet, but I can see the 1/2x28 threads being a problem for many of the early adopters.

Who makes it? Is it a 9mm specific? Looks like it from size of hole.

That is a factory brake. Came on mine, though can't comment on how well it functions yet since I have limited range time and testing.

That brake came on my carbine.  I actually switched mine out with an A1 style brake to see if it helps with accuracy.  So far I really like the A1 brake.

Here's a post that I made a few days ago.

"I have the carbine with the muzzle brake.

All of these loads were shot at 50 yards, 5 shot groups, shot over chrono, bench rested.

Factory UMC Rem. 115gr. Ball = 1276 fps, E.S. 55, 3.62" group

Factory Speer Gold Dot 124gr. +P = 1405 fps, E.S. 17, 2.05" group

Reloads-5.2gr. Win. AutoComp, CCI 500 primer, 124gr. Speer Gold Dot, mixed brass = 1236 fps, E.S. NA, 1.74" group

Reloads-5.2gr. Win. AutoComp, CCI 500 primer, 115gr. RMR FMJ, mixed brass = 1329 fps, E.S. 38, 1.53" group-new A1 flash hider installed


So far my most accurate load is my 115 gr. reloads.

By the way, I removed the factory muzzle brake and installed an AR-15 style A1 muzzle brake (made for 9mm).  I did this because I have gotten a few flyers with shooting the original muzzle brake.  I want to see if this is the brake doing this or if I'm pulling my shots. 

I had one 5 shot group while shooting with the original muzzle brake that was pretty impressive.  I shot 4 rounds into a .66" group at 50 yards but the 5th round opened it up to over 2".  This group was shot with my Gold Dot reloads.

I have shot both brakes using my 115gr. RMR FMJ reloads.  The original brake has produced groups from 1.74" to 2.27" at 50 yards, while the A1 brake produced a group size of 1.53" at 50 yards.  I need to do more testing with different loads before offering an opinion on the accuracy difference between the two brakes on my carbine."


Here's the A1 brake.   http://androcorpind.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=75_78&product_id=270
