MUZZLE BRAKE ABSTRACT The muzzle brake disclosed is aimed at being more effective in reducing the recoil of a gun. The end of the barrel is provided with a long, narrow chamber (30) which has the effect of containing the muzzle gases against radial expansion, and causing them to emerge forwardly as a jet. The jet intensifies the concentration of the gases against the back (23) of the reaction plate (20). The brake is open backed, so that the jet draws in atmospheric air. This promotes a vigorous explosion of the remaining unburnt propellant. The gases that travel rearwardly after the explosion exert only a small rearward (recoil worsening) force on the gun. A deflector (52) deflects the gases away from the gun operator.
