Having trouble capturing mine. It looks similar to that of GeneralPurpose. Mine's a 762-SDN-6 which has seen ~100 rounds of 300 BLK and about ~3500-4k of 5.56 through a 10.5" SBR. There is some carbon build up on the walls of the blast area.
Here is a picture of my muzzle brake though. Most of the ammo its seen has been 77gr Noslers over 24.0gr of Ramshot TAC.

Put the camera right up against the open end of the can, tap in the middle of the screen to focus it on the baffles, and hit the capture button.

AAC 762SDN6 with approx 5500rnds down the tube. About 4500 of that being on an 11.5" SBR in 5.56 with a brake, and the remainder being a mix of .308 out of a 16" barrel and 26" barrel. The first chamber on the brake on the SBR is cratered pretty badly. The second chamber has some wear as well. Can't say how much it's protected the blast baffle as that's made of inconel and the brake isn't, but I'm going to switch over to a flash hider shortly as I'm tired of the concussion when I shoot unsuppressed. If you only shoot suppressed it's certainly the way to go. If not, seriously consider a flash hider instead.

Here is the blast baffle of my Griffin Armament Sportsman .30 DT.
170 rounds so far. Mostly .308 on an 18" barrel with approximately 20 rounds of .22-250 mixed in. The Sportsman is 100% 7075 Aluminum. The blast baffle has a machined radius on it's face, so that's not wear that you're seeing. 
This pic is Griffin's Cornerstone "brake" which is made from 17-4 PH. It's not so much of a "brake" as it is an interchangeable thread module. It does serve to reduce wear on the blast baffle, but Griffin warns against using it as a stand alone brake. Not the best pic, but it's the best my LG G3 could do. No wear on either the blast baffle, or Cornerstone mount.

My SDN-6 has looked the same way since day one. |

Picture of the brake chambers? I'll try to get some this weekend. The last time I looked it wasn't bad at all. My YHM brakes must be made of softer material because 1000 rounds through one of those had really noticeable wear. So much so that I replaced it. I'll try to get some pics of that one too if I didn't throw it away. |

Here's some of mine:
13 year old M4-2000. 10k+ rounds from a 10.5" M16 through a 16" semi. I haven't used it much in the last two years due to my new cans. Mostly flash hider, little bit of brake. 
Sico Omega with about 200 rounds of 300 blackout subsonic. 9" SBR with flash hider. 
Surefire SOCOM 556 Mini with about 1k rounds. 10.3" Mk18 with flash hider. 
Surefire SOCOM 556-SB. New. 
I'll post up more as time permits. |

Surefire SOCOM 556 RC using SF3P and SF4P on a 10.3" barrel. Suppressor has around 1,500 rds. Some pretty good erosion (almost chunks) at the 1 o'clock and 6-7 o'clock positions. Don't know how to set up my camera to take a decent picture.

Bump to keep this thread from dying. I would love to see some more Griffin cans that have substantial round counts. I have an Optimus inbound and am thinking about getting either a Recce 5 or Alpha. I should be able to get some pics after shooting my new Surge soon

That's a bunch of wear. I have more rounds than that through mine with a 3 prong. But its not even close to that sort of wear. |

"Somewhere in the midst of my coke-fueled orgy I decide life wasn't so bad after all."
Apparently just using poly coated bullets doesn't always stop leading. Here's a Bowers VERS-9s after maybe 5000 rounds.
Further investigation shows not only does the Uzi barrel that fired most of these rounds have a rough bore that tends to strip the coating, it is also excessively oversized. More to come with regard to that. BTW, here's what the can looks like now. Total cost was just shipping to Tom and back.
