1967spud Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 id say it was off an Sako TRG but the more knowledgable will tell you if im wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brown dog Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 id say it was off an Sako TRG but the more knowledgable will tell you if im wrong It's either a TRG/Blaser brake ...or it's an anglo rifles brake that copies the design. Only time I've ever seen one on an AW was on mine which I sold a couple of months ago. Where did you buy the AW? If you can confirm 100% that it's threaded 18x1 and has no rust; I'll give you £45 for it. (TRG brakes are 18x1, but AWs are threaded 18x 1.5) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scallopdiver Posted May 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 The brake has no threads in it,i think it just clamps onto the muzzel.It came off a remmy 308 pss i bought and then had threaded for a mod.The hole for the barrel is .820" across,does this sound right?

Nope. I'm afraid that sounds like a TRG brake that someone has bodged and ruined. The TRG muzzle brake is threaded design, the clamp screw is only designed to stop it rotating and undoing itself; it's not designed to hold it on without threads. With the threads removed and it opened out to the dimension you give (20mm), I'm sorry to say that I think you have a piece of scrap metal on your hands.

John MH Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 It's not a ACRC brake, just checked mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronin Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Have to aggree with BD, looks like a TRG / Blaser brake that some kind soul has bored out the threads on..... Unless you have a large diameter barrel that can be threaded with something the brake will accept - its scrap... No way would I use a brake with just a clamp screw.....

scallopdiver Posted May 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Looks like i have a nice paper weight then!Hard to believe that some a###hole actually put this into a lathe and bored the threads out rather than threading the barrel!Pity too because a mate of mine shoots a trg and i am sure he would have liked to try this on his rifle. Thanks for the responses guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
