Default Muzzle brake, looks brilliant!

Rob, what material was used for the muzzle brake? It's a brilliant job.

I would have liked mine to be metal, but I have no talent and don't know anyone who works with metal lathes. Fortunately I have a friend who was able to turn one from wood, and I'll be damned if he didn't get it very close to original look.

I tips me hat to you fellas that have such high standards in your work. I have been following your progressand it gives me something to aspire to.

Best regards, and hope you have a happy & prosperous 2016.
