Hello again everyone.

I'm thinking about removing my iron sights in order to add a muzzle brake. I was going to make the muzzle brake, to add some weight to the muzzle and possibly improve accuracy. And, as an added bonus, it'll seriously help the looks of the rifle.

If you have a scope and never use the sights then its an easy answer! I personally think some open sights look pretty sweet. I removed the rear sight on my RWS 350 and actually left the front one on for a period of time b/c I liked how it looked and it does add minimal protection of the muzzle from some angles.

Sounds to me, based on the poll labels you chose, that you have already made the decision. Just sayin . . .

FWIW, I like the muzzle brake look also.

Ya, I kind of have made a decision. Razz

Well, I'm going to pick up the parts tomorrow, and I'll make sure to post a little "DIY B3 rifle muzzle brake" thread.
