Greetings All,
I am now the proud owner of an M44...my first Mosin...Its kinda an oddball, but I am a sucker for hard chrome (though in this case it might be a lesser job), and the stock just drew me in...
Anyway I was curious if anyone can chime in on their experiences with muzzle brakes for this rifle?
It appears this one is to avoid at all costs (several reports of it blowing off):
However this one looks like it might have promise (ie heavier, not being blown off the barrel)?
...actually looking up the website that linked to that picture - it appears this muzzle brake is also crap - it took out the front sight when it blew off....

...So i guess...does anyone know if someone makes a good muzzle brake/compensator for the M44? - Not really a big deal - but something to keep my eye out for (have two rough Type 53s coming my way)
Thanks!,
