"COOL",thanks.
I have seen another design of sending the blast forward, but this one (the real noveske) also has an internal chamber that creates backpressure and it seems to help short barrel guns run more reliably, but on 14.5" it's questionnable in helping anything and anything longer makes this device pretty useless.
Having fake devices like this on the market frightens me, this will make it difficult to buy on EE or e-bay..

I bet it'll work...once....
It's what they call a "wadcutter" so you can more easily see where your flash hider went through the target....

Well it's not really just because it's a muzzle brake, but the whole concept of major parts being made that could end up on real guns.
Mike's info is great, but even the pic shows the correct serial number style, so who's to say the airsoft won't copy that too.
A cgn'er showed me an airsoft copy of a KAC M14 rail, that one would be easy cus they mis-spelled "armement"
I correct myself. I just looked at some airsofts on internet, and it's definitely NOT cheap fun. Goodlord, these people can just BUY real rifles with money they gotta spend on those airsoft. I thought they would be like, you know, 100 dollars or something, like how a toys are supposed to cost, you know?

Number 1 it's copyright infringment, something China excells at in most cases.
Number 2 it's just another way for someone to get ripped buying parts for their real gun.
Now, if it performs like the real thing (whichwould be nice but I highly doubt it) it's not so much of a safty matter.
But you have to ask yourself, are you willing risk that thing shattering (as pig steel will tend to under stress) and peppering you and your range mates with frags to save a few bucks? Knowing of course that you will have absolutly no legal recourse as it was never intended to go on real steel.
Arisoft is fun. Real Steel shooting is fun. But the two should not be brought together in any fashion.

I discovered that the AR15 rail front end on my rifle was an airsoft one. I took the rifle in for some mods and the armorer said 'oh by the way, thats an airsoft front end.' Upon closer inspection I found he was correct. Given that that component doesn't have a lot of stress put on it, it worked fine. I swapped it off anyways just on general principles. I am pretty sure the guy here on CGN who I bought it off of had no idea (I hope anyways).
Some airsoft items will work okay, and some wont. As Blackthorne points out, many airsoft components come out of China and are made from low grade, low temperature metals (ie: tin & aluminum being the most popular). I suspect a component like a flash hider or muzzle brake is more likely to fail because of the pressures and temperatures its exposed to. On the other hand, the airsoft Aimpoint sitting on my M14/Sopmod project works and has stayed zero'd since the day I bought it. I generally wouldn't advocate using an airsoft component on a real steel project, BUT, in some limited cases, it works and can save you $$ bling if you can stand the idea of it.
I am willing to bet that this will work 2 or three times and then once the threads are stripped your Noveske rip off will become a wadcutter or as BT says, a fragmentation grenade. Pig metal shatters into splinters, so I am sure it would be a dangerous experiment.
Wait for it, some poor dolt will strap one on and we will hear about it.
I much prefer my Levang comp. The Noveske looks like a shower head.
