SureFire SFMB: Recoil Reduction & Suppressor Mount
- Large, Precisely Angled Ports Greatly Reduce Recoil: TheSFMB by SureFire features large, angled ports that are designed to redirect a significant amount of the propellant gases to the sides, creating a forward-pushing force that directly counteracts the rearward recoil of the firearm.
- Minimize Side Blast and Rear-Directed Concussion: While no muzzle brake can completely eliminate side blast and rear-directed concussion, the Impulse Diffusion™ Technology makes it more manageable for the shooter.
- Tracks Straight Back: Many users note that the SOCOM Muzzle Brake makes the rifle track "straight back" with very little muzzle rise or "flip", allowing them to get back on target for follow-up shots much faster.
