Gun Spelling: Muzzle Break or Muzzle Brake

[the1kidd03]

I feel some in this thread need to go find all of their English teachers and apologize to them...

agreed...unfortunately I have the pleasure of studying under an English Ph.D professor 3 times a week.....and he's a prude on proper grammar, punctuation, etc.....

A muzzle brake is used to inhibit the movement of the muzzle. So, it's a muzzle brake.

To accomplish this inhibition of muzzle movement, it may act upon the gasses in a manner not precisely defined as braking.
This is no biggy, since we're not calling it a gas brake.

I still voted for Bacon.

excellent explanation from a pov I hadn't thought about.......absolutely couldn't argue with that logic

Huh...

You really need to leave your distractions outside of the Classroom and focus just a little more then...

It is a Muzzle Brake, not Break, but Brake. A muzzle Break is a whole different set of issues and concerns...

Gawd, I think I covered it pretty well in the second post on the thread. I voted for bacon as well.
