I understand the "it's a gun" thing and shooting is load but some brakes are just awful.
If it's providing no recoil management what's the point.
I have a brake of unknown manufacture that's just stupid load and it blasts my hat and gets shit on my lenses. Along with the the folks to the left and right.
I've never had that issue with my brake. With mine you dont notice any difference as a shooter vs a birdcage besides the recoil reduction. Now if you are anywhere besides the shooter its crazy stupid loud and shoots huge flames out the sides. And it really does reduce recoil, you can shoot the gun like a pistol (like 2 hands on the pistol grip arms extended) and get less barrel rise than a full size 9mm. Its some no name brand steel "competition" brake from amazon, in the truth about guns brake test it blew everyone away on performance per dollar. For like $10 bucks on sale how could you go wrong?
