Does anybody have any contact information for K&P muzzle brakes? Who else makes a decent clamshell style of brake?

Another vendor for clamshell type brakes is;
GEORGE PETRUSICH,
928-282-9303
20 Pine Dr., Sedona, AZ, 86336
E-mail: geoaz@maildivision.com

George manufactures several accessories and reloading tools for the .50 BMG, including;

" Manufacturer of several stainless steel .50 caliber reloading tools, Primer Punch (for mil-staked primers), Brass Necker (for fixing bent necks), Inside neck trim set, Case/Shell Gauges for 50 BMG, 50 DTC, or 50 BAT , Hornady-style lock rings, Palm wrench for the Hornady-style lock rings, 50 cal MTM ammo boxes with special tray, and Lead Hammer."

I believe an associate of George makes the clamshell brakes and George sells them, but if I remember right George designed the brake.
Anyway, he has a very good reputation for high quality, top notch all the way.

Hi,

I have made few brakes for the 50 based on a upscaled Vias design. They worked very well and don't look huge on the end of the barrel. I made them from 416 Stainless Steel but could also make them from alloyed steel if need be.

Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo.
