SilencerCo ASR Muzzle Brake 5.56MM Fits Specwar Saker Hybrid Omega Harvester ASR Mounting System 1/2x28 AC142 UPC 817272010336

Product Description

The SilencerCo ASR Muzzle Brake 5.56mm (AC142) is a high-performance muzzle device and suppressor mounting platform designed for AR-15 rifles and 5.56 NATO / .223 Remington carbines. Threaded in standard 1/2x28 TPI, this dual-port muzzle brake effectively tames felt recoil and muzzle rise during fast unsuppressed firing strings, allowing shooters to maintain target sight picture and perform rapid follow-up shots with confidence.

In addition to its standalone recoil mitigation capabilities, the AC142 features SilencerCo's patented Active Spring Retention (ASR) quick-detach interface. The external threading and taper geometry provide a rigid, repeatable lockup when mounting ASR-compatible silencers—including the Omega 300, Hybrid 46, Saker ASR, Specwar, and Harvester EVO. The taper mount seals off carbon blowback from reaching the attachment threads, ensuring smooth, non-binding suppressor detachment even after high-volume firing sessions.

Precision-machined in the USA from high-strength stainless steel and treated with a durable Black Nitride finish, the AC142 is built to resist thermal erosion, carbon pitting, and chemical wear. Included with a shim set for precise timing alignment during installation, the SilencerCo 1/2x28 ASR Muzzle Brake is an essential mounting upgrade for tactical shooters, law enforcement officers, and suppressed rifle enthusiasts.

Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Fitment Matrix: Fits rifle barrels chambered in 5.56mm NATO / .223 Rem (and smaller calibers) with 1/2x28 TPI threads. Interfaces directly with SilencerCo ASR Mounting System silencers (Omega 300, Saker series, Hybrid 46, Specwar, Harvester ASR) and third-party suppressors fitted with an ASR mount module.
  1. Perform a complete firearm safety check: drop the magazine, lock the bolt rearward, and visually inspect the chamber to verify zero live rounds are present.
  2. Clean the barrel muzzle threads (1/2x28) completely using a copper wire brush and solvent to remove old threadlocker, carbon, or grease.
  3. Select the correct combination of included alignment shims to achieve proper timing so the side brake ports orient horizontally at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions.
  4. Apply a small drop of high-temperature threadlocker (Rocksett recommended for suppressed use) to the clean barrel threads.
  5. Thread the AC142 brake onto the barrel by hand and torque to 20–30 ft-lbs using a standard armorer's wrench.
  6. Allow threadlocker to cure for 24 hours before mounting your ASR suppressor and verifying bore alignment with a caliber-specific alignment rod.
