MDT Lightweight Titanium Muzzle Brake

MDT Sporting Goods is releasing the new MDT Titanium Hunting Brake, created to deliver maximum recoil reduction in the lightest possible package. Designed specifically for lightweight rifles and NRL Hunter competitors, this brake helps shooters stay on target and spot their own impacts without adding unnecessary weight.

Machined from Ti-6Al-4V titanium, the MDT Titanium Hunting Brake weighs 1.7 ounces, making it one of the lightest brakes in its class. Its four-port design with angled ports mitigates recoil and muzzle rise, while the self-timing lock nut ensures a secure, tool-free installation. A leveling flat on the underside of the brake allows precise timing and alignment for a clean, professional fit.
