I just bought a Dead Air Sandman last week and it came with a Keymo Muzzle Brake. Also, a couple of years ago, I traded for a PSA 308 Gen 3 and it had a Keymo Flash Hider on it when I got it. I am curious as to which one is, for lack of a better term, is better or worse for use with a suppressor. I would rather use Flash Hiders because I find Muzzle breaks on the loud side. The only time I have seen recommendations for a Muzzle Brake on a Dead Air suppressor was on a Dead Air YouTube video when they said to use a Keymicro Muzzle brake on a 300blk for the Wolfman because it could cause damage to the baffles when you try to put it on. |

I've always gone by get a brake if you will almost always shoot suppressed, and a flash hider if it might be more 50/50 on suppressed or unsuppressed. I got a OCL OTB Flash hider on my AR-15, which does get shot unsuppressed a fair bit. However, once I figure our a can for my AR-10 build, it's getting a Dead Air DTB setup which is direct thread with a small single port brake built in to keep it simple and effective. |

This is sound advice. Using a brake will help extend the life of your can if you’re running it hard, especially on an SBR. |
