Muzzle brake for Sub 2000

Dlask can make any of their muzzle brakes for 9mm. You'll have to get the barrel threaded, obviously.
There is a muzzle brake available from Red Lion that attaches to a front sight that looks kind of cool, but Red Lion doesn't like Canadians and wont ship up here.

Billygoat beat me to it!
^^^ This.
It's a $600 9mm. Why waste your money? Buy more ammo instead of paying someone for something you don't need.

You've obviously never shot one, or know anything about them.
It's a blowback action, and the bolt carrier in that gun is about a 2 pound chunk of rounded steel.
You would THINK that recoil on the Sub2000 wouldn't be bad, but it's certainly noticeable. I find it to be even more so than .223, and maybe even closer to .308.
We're not talking about handgun levels of recoil here. Not even close.

It is interesting how many "classic replies" you get when asking for some help on a forum. All I want is answers. Who ever knows why a question is posed. Maybe I have 7 grand kids that I'm introducing to shooting. Trying to teach them to respect firearms. Maybe 3 are girls. And maybe I've never used a muzzle brake on anything. Maybe I'm close to retirement and just getting back into shooting myself.
Thanks to everyone out there that truly tries to help someone when they ask a question.

Absolutely. For a forum of gun owners who want nothing more than to be left alone, it's amazing how difficult it seems to be for'em to mind their own damn business if they're not gonna actually HELP. See it in every thread. It's my only problem with this site, i come here just for info and have to wade through 20 pages of pre-pubescent sarcastic remarks to get to someone who actually knows a thing. Hope you get an answer.
So Stosh,
Why do you want a muzzle break? If it's for your "maybe" reasons then it won't look like the one pictured above that is more for looks and has zero function.
One thing to consider before you spend too much on this sub 2000 is that at some point this year the Gen 2 Sub 2000's will be available and come with the barrel threaded so all you'd need to do is choose a compensator or brake.

A muzzle brake won't affect that.
For years, my personal weapon was the Sterling submachine gun. It didn't have a bolt carrier, but it did have a 2 pound bolt. On the range, when the fire order was given, we all fired at the same time. Without the sound cue, I had no idea whether I had fired or not on the first shot, so I pulled the trigger extra hard to make sure.
I could not discern any recoil at all. It's all in the sound.
No reason not to have something on your muzzle if you like, of course!
Don't get worked up about things you read on the internet. It'll kill you.
I've never fired a Sterling, but the recoil on the Sub is noticeable for whatever reason. Maybe I'm wrong and it has nothing to do with the bolt carrier.
