I don't see anything about a muzzle brake on this barrel, and since it has the normal carbine forend, this is further evidence it does not. The braked S-16s that came later were untapered and had the Muzzle Tamer brake.... they took the S-14 forends.
These toothpick barrels with the big hole are brutal to shoot. I have heard of them changing hands 3 times in one week with only a shot or two fired by each owner.
If you are thinking about buying the barrel, stay distracted by the girl.

Hit the "view this sellers other auctions" and check out the see through rings!
I've seen this seller many times in the past... and their items always have the same.. "back ground". Seem to be selling everything, guess they had to pay for those puppies somehow! I don't want to get too anatomical here but... don't the butter on them pancakes seem a bit far north? lol
I watched a new (to the gun) shooter fire one of those little 45-70 carbines. It was kinda cool. In recoil, the gun raised up, totally left his body at the forend, grip and shoulder.. it when up about 8-12" inches in the air, rolled over 180� clockwise, and came right back down in place, landing in a pefect shooting position. Only it was now upside down.
Neat trick, wished I'd got it on video.

Nice limited pics but I cant help think that what aint shown aint "all that" If the rest of the package was nice I think it would also be used in the marketing......still he probably gets more hits when he shows the ....
