ABSTRACT:
A muzzle brake for a firearm is formed from an elongated tubular sleeve that has a plurality of circular rows of apertures drilled from its outer surface to its inner bore. The circumferential spacing between each of the apertures in each row being such that they intersect the adjacent appertures on both sides of them at a point intermediate the wall thickness to produce integrally formed baffles in the interior of the tubular sleeve. The baffles function to reduce the recoil of the firearm and further to aid in directing the propellant gases of a bullet radially outwradly through the radial apertures of the muzzle brake.
