ABSTRACT:
A muzzle stabilization arrangement for a rifle (10) with a barrel (14) includes a muzzle stabilizer (18) mounted on the front end of the barrel and having a transverse opening (80) partially defined by a surface (84) upon which propellant gases from the muzzle may impinge during firing to hold the muzzle down. Gas ports (38, 40) in the barrel supply propellant gas to orifices (62, 64) in the stabilizer which direct a gas screen over the opening to prevent excessive noise.
