Lawdog Dago Dom Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Important safety tip; do not put a 5.56 caliber muzzle brake on 9mm. Even if it’s threaded for it.

Old Man Graybeard Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Dom…please tell me it wasn’t YOU that did this…
Big Gus, SASS# 66666 Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 No, why did someone put it on their gun?

Cholla Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 I don't see a problem. It was put on the muzzle and it broke. Isn't that what a muzzle brake was supposed to do??? It's like a fuse and is a one-time device, right?

Blackwater 53393 Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Looks like someone was suffering from the DUMBASS!!!
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Maybe it was an experiment trying to swage a 9mm to 5.56mm????????
Wallaby Jack, SASS #44062 Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 I can't help but wonder how many underwears needed changed ......
Alpo Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 All these posts seem to be under the impression that this was intentional. I believe that he had two uppers, and he had a flash suppressor for each one, and he just accidentally put the 223 suppressor on the 9mm barrel. I have an officer's model 1911, and some full size 1911s. I once put the officer's magazine in the full size gun. The well was tight enough that it stayed up there, but it wouldn't feed. Oops. I have now painted the word SHORT on my one officer's magazine, to make sure I don't accidentally put it in a full size gun again. I'm sure I'm not the only one that has taken the ammunition for the wrong gun to the range, because you have single actions in both 44 and 45. Accidents do happen.

Chili Ron Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Howdy. I just have to wonder how much lube would a fella need??? Best CR

I second this. That's why you work on only one caliber at a time and triple check diameter.
irish ike, SASS #43615 Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 "flash suppressor" not a brake.
LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Interchangeability is one of the reasons I won't have 300 BO ammo in my possession. I've seen what a 300 BO round will do in a 5.56 barrel
Smuteye John SASS#24774 Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 Is the bullet is just that mangled, or does it look like he fired more than once?
Howlin Mad Murdock SASS #4037 Posted February 5, 2022 Posted February 5, 2022 When the 9mm AR's were first built, they used 1/2"x36tpi, instead of the 5.56mm standard 1/2"x28tpi, or 5/8"x24tpi for .30 cal and up, just so that would not happen. Most manufacturers followed that up until 5-6 years ago when some started using 1/2"x28tpi on all barrels.
