xBrokenswordx did you buy your Springfield muzzle brake her in Canada or did you get it straight from them? And how much?
It came installed on my Springfield, I'm currently using a NM flashider with bayo mount on my M1A.
Ah cool, so does it really reduce recoil but makes it bang louder on your shorty? Im thinking of getting the same Springfield muzzle brake from Brownells but not sure yet because a lot of folks say it makes the rifle sound louder without the "ping" sound.
