Abstract:
A muzzle brake for high power rifles, hand guns, machine guns, and artillery, exhibiting barrel stabilization and recoil reduction, by capturing gasses against an orifice end plate and redirecting these gases both out of the muzzle brake, and into the muzzle brake to fill the partial vacuum left by the exiting high pressure gases, by way of Major truncated socket forms, and to a lesser extent, with the use of Minor truncated socket forms, and their associated vent ports in an asymmetrical pattern that balances barrel lift, and recoil against the expected and recovered gases.

Claim (Index 1):
A muzzle brake for controlling recoil in a firearm, the muzzle brake comprising:\n a body member defining a substantially cylindrical inner cavity having a central axis, the body member comprising:\n a rear portion defining a rearward surface of the inner cavity and a rearward opening extending through the rear portion along the central axis of the inner cavity, the rear portion being adapted to be secured to a bore of a firearm to hold the inner cavity central axis coaxial with the bore of the firearm; \n a front wall defining a forward surface of the inner cavity and a through opening extending through the front wall along the central axis of the inner cavity, the through opening being coaxial with the inner cavity central axis; and \n a side wall defining a curved side surface of the inner cavity; \n the inner cavity having a smooth bore inner surface that has a uniform diameter between the rearward surface and front wall, and the inner cavity extending outwardly from the central axis to have a greater circumference than the through opening of the front wall; \n a first row of vent bores defined along a first side of the side wall along a longitudinal horizontal plane defined by the inner cavity central axis; and \n a second row of vent bores defined along an opposite second side of the side wall along the longitudinal plane; \n wherein each of the vent bores extends into an external surface of the side wall and at least partially through the side surface of the inner cavity, each vent bore comprising an outer portion having a substantially cylindrical shape and forming an external vent port of the body member and an inner portion having a hemispherical shape, each inner portion of each vent bore at least partially intersecting the inner cavity to form a truncated nozzle portion having a leading edge extending along the side surface of the inner cavity; \n whereby when fluid is forced from the bore of the firearm into the inner cavity, the leading edge of each of the first plurality of vent bores diverts fluid against the hemispherical inner portion of the vent bore and outward of the body member through the vent port of the vent bore, thereby urging the body member forward.
