Best muzzle device to permanently attach to S12

[Parf 19]

After removing the barrel from the receiver, I am going to cut down my barrel and permanently attach a muzzle device to bring the barrel length down to 18.25 inches. What would you guys suggest? I don't want a spiky door breacher, but other than that I am open to suggestions. The only thing I can see those "teeth" doing for me, is biting my leg.

 

What say you?

Depends on what you plan to use it for. For general purposes, Tromix shark breaks kick ass. They are a little sharp, but not particularly stabby.

[Parf 19]

Can you permanently attach a polychoke? Would that be a bad idea? I like the idea of having a choke.

 

I like the looks of the King Armory unit, the Tromix flash hider, the JTE competition brake #2, and the Phantom hider, so far.

Home defense and possibly some competition. Cardboard, bad guys, and zombies.

I have a Perm Poly choke on one of my rigs... no complaints....

A friend of mine has the JTE competition brake permanently attached with barrel shortened as you described. It makes the whole gun look awesome. I can't speak to how functional it is yet because I haven't seen him since the day he got it. I'm thinking about going in that direction with one of mine. I agree, the pointy ends might look evil but for practical purposes they aren't much use to the average guy. I even question how effective any door breaching brake is at all against any substantial door unless used in conjunction with door breaching rounds or you have a lot of time on your hands to pick away at wood and/or metal.

I am in the same boat but I am leaning towards the tromix comp brake. Expensive but cool looking.

I have a Chaos Warthog. Nice and sharp. But it I was going to put something on permanently it would be my poly-choke for function.

If I was going to sacrifice my external threads for a shorter barrel length, and weld something on there permanently, I would go with one of these internally threaded choke adapters:

Not only has it been proven in testing that the internal chokes pattern better than poly chokes, but you will also have other options that you don't get with a poly. There are rifled slug chokes that give better accuracy with sabot slugs, along with ported, and other specialty chokes. You would also have the option of whatever attachments may be available in the near future, that will thread into the adapter....hint hint...

I personally like dinzag's AK brake.

But I tend to like old school on everything anyhow.

 

Whatever you do...

You do realize you'll need to add a port or increase the size right?

+1 on the dinzag break....makes the s12 look mean, adds length but looks good......in your case it wont add to the oal it will just be included

All ready done! I got one of the Vodka specials, and drilled 2 more ports and opened them all up a bit. I can't remember what size, but I do remember that it was the recommended size for a 14" barrel with factory length gas system. I use the gunfixer plug to turn the gas down as it is now.

poly choke or cobras choke adapters.

This or cobra's choke adapters.

My gunsmith is making a copy of a Barrett comp for my S12

But it will have a not vented Poly-Choke at the end.

It will also have a double JP Enterprise shroud brake in the middle of the barrel.

Will post some pics once finished

possibly the coolest idea ever.

[Chowderhead72 13]

I would buy that no question. Make your millions..

that would be the most epic S12 attachment of the year...unless the double stacks get here first

If you're trying to get a short looking barrel, the Tromix flash hider is nice and long. It looks really good in person too; great machine work.
