Not sure of an aftermarket muzzle brake to direct you to, but the thread specs are as follows; you may not find someone specifically selling a muzzle brake "FOR" the MAS 49/56, but you might be able to match specs:

The threads are 16.8mm x 100 diameter of a left turning coil, Length 22mm, after a 15mm diameter X 6mm long barrel start. The barrel itself is 17mm in diameter.

Good info! I have seen unthreaded brakes for sale, so with that info a competent gunsmith can thread it up for a 49/56.

How about we modify it so it's not a hider anymore...? I have one with the same issue... God bless Ca...

[Seesm]

Hey I also may be able to cut one of my ar10 brakes to work on the Mas.. let me see this if I can make one for me and a extra for YOU?

I just finished making up a muzzle brake for mine last night. No idea on how
well it will work, but it does away with the bare threaded muzzle which looks
a little funky to me. Not sure if this photo will post.....

Looks great, let us know how well it works.

Heck, I'd settle for one of those clamp on types so long as it didn't look out of place.

I like that...

Where did you find a tap to make those threads? I've been hearing that it's pretty hard to find those.

I need one as well, so if you make a couple more, I'd be glad to pay you something for it...

I will buy that instead of making my own... PM me.. Daddy want!!

Yeah, me too! If you make a few of those, let me know. I'd definitely pay you for that. Right now, I've got bare threads on my 49/56 barrel. I'd rather not ding them up...

[Pismire]

I will let you know how it does after I try it out. I am making a scope mount
as well, so it may be a week or two before that is done and I take it to the range. I hadn't thought about selling them, but I will think about it. The shark gills are kind of a pain and really add to the machining time. A simpler one could be made, but I don't know if that is more or less appealing to anyone.


For the gentleman asking about a tap- I single pointed the thread on a lathe.

[Seesm]

I really do not care how it works... Just need to either get one or make a few to sell..

[geofry666]

I'd buy one too if you decide to produce a few.

thanks,
Geoff
