    Deflector Brake

    The other week at the range, a guy next to me was shooting his AR.
    We got to talking about my Swiss 96/11.
    I saw a black bumper stuck to the deflector on his AR.
    Asked him about it.
    He said he saw it on-line while looking for something else.
    Was cheap enough, so he got a kit to try.
    It seemed to work well
    All the shells were deflected into a small area at the 2:00 position.
    No dents on the shells.
    Don't shoot much AR's, but I may try them.

    Those who choose violence as a first option are typically confronted by somebody else using violence as a last resort.

    Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll enjoy it a second time.
