Building a muzzel brake

Post by Gra »

easy way to make a muzzle brake
styrene tubes will fit inside each other (select appropriate sizes)
cut to length each section and slide it over the other tube (glue together)
file to shape, fill with putty and file again, drill out smoke holes and file/dremmel to shape

pics of the Panther brake I made
(will not take BB's)
cheers
Gra :)
