Question on brakes, Gene...

[daved]

Have you or can you make them from anything heavier than aluminum?  Just got my B-20 today, and it's definitely a lightweight compared to my 77.  I think I'm gong to get a B 26-2 stock for it and add some weight, but I'm going to need a muzzle brake/weight too.  Any ideas?

Brass! And leave it in the natural machined finish or polish it up real good. The contrast would look niiiiice! 'Specially if you have a darker stock.

Ya Dave....:) I guess since Sam posted back about the brass, I can not add much..:) Although steel would be heavier but not recommended at all.. I thinki a nice size aluminum and brass muzzle brake may do the trick or just brass... Only thing is brass is like gold to buy.. hehe. I have some 5/8" round and some 3/4" round tube brass in stock.. I have made a couple brakes with brass and alumiunm that are pretty heavy for there size.. Here is a pic of the one I made.. It is a small one but  you can at least see what I am talking about..:)This is a set I made for a B-3. A muzzle brake and cocking handle with brass and with knurled handle...

I know them look and work great because............the cocking arm handle is on my B3 and the brake is on my Gamo 220.22 hehehe and they are FANTASTIC. I know, I'm putting some pic's together but want to show my camo stock's and Gene's AirGunToy's in the right lighting and and background. Making a photo booth to display these item's. :) Ed
