Is there a noticeable difference with or without?

Bump.

I ahve two and would like to know if I want to spend the extra $$$ to get some. 4 set screws do not set well with me though. I also do not think my .223 needs one but my 7.62 might want one.

I think a fleash hider would be more detrimental than a muzzle break. Just my opinion

Genghis, for what it's worth, I have a muzzle-break on my 7.62 Vepr K. I was worried about the 4 set screws aswell, so decided I would pull them out and loc-tite them. When I pulled out the screws I tried and tried but couldn't get the break to budge. I think it is as secure as a threaded break. Just my opinion.

well then how well does the flash hider work for VEPRanyway, i just ordered a VEPR K in 5.45 with a muzzlebreak because i was more concerned with a quick follow up shot. If it only to protect the muzzle crown then thats good enough. I just wanted to know if they actually help keep down recoil any or if they are just cosmetic.

I only have one VEPR, and it has a break. I don't have one without the break, so I am unable to give you a comparison.

kewl BigStick47 im not gonna ask you to take it off Seems like its on solid then. From what i understand it will allready be fitted to the barrel when i recieve the rifle so i probally wont even mess with it.

I dont think its so much a matter of the gun but the round and the type of break/suppresser. If it has a 74 style break on it ask in the general forums if theres a major difference with and without. I knwo I have seen a comparison of different supressors and theres a HUGE difference in no supressor and the different styles.

Vodka, I would if I could, but I can't get the damn thing off! I am planning on replacing it with a flash suppressor, because the 74 style breaks throw alot of fire in low light conditions.

you might wanna try soaking it in penetrateing oil but it might eat the paint off the barrel so i would be careful.
