ZEVs 5.56 muzzle device locked at 12 oclock with the included crush washer and hasnt shifted in 500+ rounds. Three top ports do their job reducing muzzle climb. Lighter than steel brakes Ive used.
ZEV doesnt come up much in the AR muzzle device space but their compensator is clean. Three top ports vent gas upward to reduce muzzle rise. 1/2x28 threading was true. Crush washer indexed to standard 6 oclock. Lighter than steel brakes from other brands.
felt recoil reduced significantly. blast to the sides is real but my groups are tighter
