This guide details best practices for mounting and maintaining firearm suppressors to prevent catastrophic damage. It emphasizes the critical role of barrel and muzzle device alignment, recommending tools like caliber-specific alignment rods and precision shims. The guide also covers proper thread locking with Rocksett, managing LIDS systems on specific firearms, and cleaning protocols to ensure suppressor longevity and safety, drawing on expert knowledge of NFA regulations and technical firearm maintenance.
This video from Brownells features Caleb demonstrating the best method for timing muzzle devices using the Precision Armament Accu-Washer Gen 2 Shim Kit. The tutorial covers selecting the right shim, utilizing the timing chart for accuracy, and achieving a perfect fit for flash hiders, brakes, and suppressor mounts on various rifles. It includes detailed steps on shim orientation, applying grease, and using a torque wrench for proper installation. The video also touches on timing suppressor mounts and adapter options.
This video reviews the Precision Armament Hypertap muzzle brake, highlighting its significant recoil and muzzle rise reduction capabilities. Unlike standard flash hiders, the Hypertap directs gases sideways, creating a powerful muzzle blast. The device offers customization through tunable ports, allowing users to fine-tune its performance to their specific shooting style and firearm.
This video provides a product spotlight on Brownells BRN-180 upper receivers, specifically the 13.9" and 14.5" barrel lengths. It details how these lengths, when combined with a permanently attached muzzle device (pinned and welded), can meet the 16" minimum barrel length requirement to avoid NFA registration as an SBR. The video discusses the advantages of shorter barrels for personal defense, mentions their accuracy potential, and contrasts them with the BRN-180S models for pistol builds. It also covers the selection of appropriate muzzle devices and compatible lower receivers, highlighting the Gen 2 features like the adjustable gas block and piston operating system.
This review highlights the Precision Armament Hypertap muzzle brake's exceptional recoil reduction capabilities on an AR-15. The four-baffle design effectively 'deletes' muzzle rise, enabling rapid follow-up shots and stable optics. While highly effective, it generates significant concussive force. The video also briefly touches on gunsmithing education through the Sonoran Desert Institute.
This video focuses on a "Test Trap & Chronograph Project" and highlights "Precision Armament Accu-Washers & Organization Tip." While specific firearm models and calibers are not explicitly mentioned, the context of a test trap and chronograph strongly suggests firearm-related activities such as range testing, ballistics analysis, or chronograph setup for firearms. The mention of "Precision Armament" implies a focus on firearms accessories or components related to accuracy and potentially firearm maintenance or organization.
This long-term review of a BCM AR15, after 15,000 rounds, details significant modifications for weight reduction and performance enhancement. Key upgrades include a V7 lightweight rail, Adams Arms gas block, Precision Armament EFAB, Cryptic Coatings low-mass BCG, JP adjustable gas system, and a 2A Armament lightweight lower receiver. The Aimpoint T2 with a Scalarworks mount and Vortex magnifier provide versatile optics.
This video showcases new products from Brownells, focusing on the "Connected Rifle" concept. Key items featured include the Revic PMR Smart Riflescope with smartphone integration for ballistic calculations, the Garmin ForeTrex 701 Ballistic GPS providing environmental data to phone apps, and Precision Armament's customizable Hypertap Muzzle Brake.

This video, Part 4 of a Barrel Harmonics Testing series, focuses on evaluating the performance of nine different muzzle devices on a 6.5 Grendel AR-15. The description lists all tested devices, including brands like LimbSaver, Precision Armament, and Silencerco, along with their weights. The testing aims to understand how various muzzle attachments affect barrel harmonics.
This video, part 3 of a series on barrel harmonics, focuses on testing the impact of different projectile weights, referred to as 'Lumps,' on firearm performance. It details the testing of five distinct weights of "Lumps" (25oz down to 6.3oz) and compares them with various muzzle devices, including brakes and flash hiders from brands like Krinkov Style, Precision Armament, Harrell's Precision, DPMS, Silencerco, Procomp, VG6, and a LimbSaver de-resonator. The testing aims to understand how these components affect barrel harmonics.
This video, Part 2 of a Barrel Harmonics Testing series, focuses on the impact of muzzle devices on rifle precision. It details tests with various muzzle devices of different weights and designs, including brakes and flash hiders, to assess their effect on barrel harmonics and accuracy. The description lists specific test devices from manufacturers like Precision Armament, Silencerco, and VG6, highlighting the detailed, technical nature of the analysis. The series aims to provide insights into how these components influence shooting performance.
This video features Product Manager Paul Levy showcasing new product releases. Key items highlighted include the Powder River Precision XDS Trigger Kit, Precision Armament M4-72 Muzzle Brakes, and the Magpul Ruger 10/22 X-22 Hunter Stock.
