ABSTRACT:
Muzzle-guard is a regular brake attached to the end of a gun barrel. Powder gasses are led to it in a special way: through openings in the barrel. The flows of the gasses to the brake are steared by the movement of the bullet. Gasses leaving the brake do so coaxially in the form of a widening cone. The muzzle-guard acts like a brake against recoil, lessens the noise and flash of the discharge, also lessens the impact of the gasses on the bullet right after the bullet leaves the barrel, and allows the escape of the compressed air in the front of the bullet. By special ballistics of the ammunition the muzzle-guard according to FIG. 4 makes the recoil almost imperceptible.
