I was just looking at some sks parts on the internet .He has 2 different style muzzle breaks... #1 SLOTED MINI
#2 SKS AK-47 STYLE SHORT.
Witch one would you recomend, and why.

He also sells ..20rd ZYTEL mags....and 30rd PRO MAGS. "duck bill"
They are priced very well..but do they work.
Thank you.

Muzzle brakes may require some fitting to get it to seat properly. I had to get creative with mine to get it on tight. It was just a hair too loose, and that's bad. That said, I would always choose a pin-on style over the bolt on. If you own an SKS-D, then you will only have the threaded style to worry about. I can't say which of the two models you have selected will function better, but definitely pick one that is a pin on. It's worth the extra hassle to have a tight, non-bolt-on brake. even with loctite I've heard of bolt on brakes working loose and ending up at the end of the firing range in pieces.

From my research online, the consensus seems to be that 20RD Tapco mags are the most trusted. I own 3, but I haven't shot with them yet.
 
the slotted brake is mediocre. not much effect and not much louder, most seem to like the longer (AK-74, not 47) style best. Is this guy in the states? Any mags with a higher cap. than 5 will not make it through customs, so make sure theyre pinned before you buy them.

the long one can be bought off of ebay quite a bit cheaper $8.00 US plus 6 for shipping. I bought a few of them, and no problems.
