Quoted:
I dug up my spikes break intending to sell it on the EE and while taking pictures of it I found this erosion pattern on the threaded end of the brake. Is this normal wear to see? Can I still sell it on the EE? I just started selling and I'd hate for negative feedback. The brake must have had less than 500 rounds through it. The rest of it looks pretty good. I swapped it out early on for a silencerco muzzle brake, which is why the round count is so low. Thanks for any feedback. I put links to the picture as they are HUGE Picture 1 picture 2 I'm not seeing erosion? I'm guessing what you are calling erosion is the carbon buildup that's stuck to the threads? |

Hard to tell from the pics. Spike's has a lifetime warranty.

Any device that redirects hot high pressure gas is going to erode. The more extreme the redirection the faster it will wear.
