Designers Andrey Khokhlushin and Igor Volkov have received a patent for a muzzle device for small arms. The document was published by the Federal Institute of Industrial Property (FIPS). The device dampens barrel recoil during firing, thereby improving shooting accuracy.
The device is designed for bolt-action rifled carbines and semi-automatic rifles. The declared caliber range covers both small-caliber rifles for sports and hunting, and large-caliber sniper systems. Caliber versatility is one of the invention's features.
Inside the cylindrical body with a bullet channel are V-shaped baffles with central holes. At the rear are an end flange, a shell, and a threaded flange. A flash hider made of a mesh element is located in front of the muzzle brake. Behind it are holes for the release of powder gases.
The muzzle brake is attached to the body via a flange. It has V-shaped gas diversion channels, angled to the bullet's movement. A level sensor is installed on the brake body. Behind the brake is a cylindrical adjustment element with a scale on its surface.
