ABSTRACT:
A muzzle brake system is described for use in connection with the barrel of a firearm to prevent recoil and muzzle jump upon firing of the firearm. The muzzle brake system includes an expanded chamber, larger than the bore of the barrel, located at the muzzle end of the barrel. A plurality of openings are provided through the upper portion of the barrel to communicate with the chamber to permit escape of gases when the firearm is fired.
