APA Muzzle Brakes

We have 3 main sizes of muzzle brakes to fit most barrels, Fat Bastard, Little Bastard, and Micro Bastard.


The Fat Bastard for barrels ranging from .850" to 1.125". - Match & Heavy Barrels.

The Little Bastard for barrels ranging from .750" to 1.00". - Bull & Heavy Sporter.

The Micro Bastard for barrels ranging from ..600" to .750" - Light Sporter Weight.


  The Gen 1 series is meant to be installed by a competent gunsmith.  The rear of the brake requires a chamfer to blend perfectly with your barrel.  Additionally, the gunsmith will back bore the brake for perfect coaxial bore alignment.  The end result is absolute mechanical & cosmetic perfection! 
The Gen 2 series just makes life simple. Its simple two-piece design does not require a professional installation if you have a barrel that's already threaded.  For the competitive shooter that burns through barrels like toilet paper, he can now move the brake from barrel to barrel in about 30 seconds.
The Gen 3 series picks up the Gen 2 series and improves recoil reduction by adding an additional port but then goes a step further with turnable top ports to reduce muzzle rise. 
The Gen 4 series  is a culmination of engineering improvements as well as a little bit of what you asked, we listened. As the long-range precision rifle community grows, the shooter has gotten more refined and discriminating. This has presented us here at APA with new challenges to improve.

 

Our goal for the last year in developing the 4th generation was two-fold; one to make the flattest shooting brake on the market and two, to create a low concussion maximum recoil reduction product. We are happy to announce that we did it!

 

The new calibrated U.R.P tunable top ports have been designed for maximum adjustment making the Gen 4 line of brakes the flattest shooting brakes available hands down. By testing port size, location, and how the gas feeds into them, we have been able to make these tunable top ports capable of generating zero vertical movement.

 

The new fine-tuned Bastard port has been engineered to decrease concussion while retaining maximum recoil reduction. In the muzzle brake community, there is an unwritten law that says “more concussion, more recoil reduction” and vice versa. This is something we really dug into, and we have found this to simply be not true. Borrowing from decades of research in the golf industry with their “sound is feel” philosophy, we wanted to figure out why a technically more effective and superior muzzle brakes would often anecdotally “feel” harsher even though the gun moved less and moved slower. Well, we had a eureka moment with how the sound or tone works in conjunction with the physical recoil. The new fine-tuned Bastard port and internal manifold produce a softer and sonically smoother recoil impulse by shaping the sound, into a lower frequency. The perception to the shooter is a much softer shooting rifle. This brake is easier on the ears and easier to stay in target, period.

 

Although the DNA remains the same, the new Generation 4 Fat and Little Bastards Self-Timing Muzzle Brake are a completely new beast. It is flatter shooting, softer recoiling, more tunable, and easier to use than ever.
