Fortis Red Sts Muzzle Brake 556$52.20

The Fortis RED Nitride Muzzle Brake 556 is a purpose-built recoil management tool for 5.56 shooters who demand real-world performance without compromise. Born from Fortis Manufacturing's collaboration with military, law enforcement, and competitive shooters, this brake was stress-tested under full-auto fire to prove itself in the conditions that matter most. Whether you're running a competition rig, a duty carbine, or a hard-use hunting platform, the RED is engineered to keep your shot-to-shot speed and accuracy intact by managing recoil efficiently.
Built from 4140 steel and finished in hardened red nitride, the RED combines toughness with distinctive aesthetics — it performs as well as it looks. The 1/2x28 thread pitch is the standard for most modern 5.56 rifles, and the included crush washer ensures a solid, repeatable mount. What sets this brake apart is its real pedigree: it's been validated by the operators and shooters who live and breathe this stuff, then refined for the rest of us.
If you run a control shield or suppressor-ready rail system, the RED is compatible with modern accessory ecosystems. Recoil reduction means faster target reacquisition, less muzzle rise, and more consistent follow-up shots — all of which translate to tighter groups and better hit probability, whether you're at the range, in competition, or in the field. Made in the USA.

The RED is threaded 1/2x28, which is the standard muzzle thread for most modern 5.56 rifles and AR-15 platforms. Verify your barrel is 1/2x28 before purchase.
The RED ships with a crush washer for installation. This washer helps ensure a tight, repeatable mount on your barrel.
The RED is control shield compatible, making it a good fit for modern modular rail systems. For suppressor compatibility, confirm with your suppressor manufacturer, as mounting options vary.
Red nitride is a case-hardened finish that resists corrosion and wear. The RED was tested under harsh full-auto conditions, so it's built to handle heavy use and adverse weather.
