Anybody tried the EC tuner brake?
I am interested in it and would like to hear some reviews.
Thanks!

You’ll just have to shoot a lot more while you go through more of the tuners settings on a thicker contour barrel.Would it be less effective on heavy contour barrels? I am running MTU
Remember he’s a bench rest shooter primarily. Silencers aren’t big on their priority listDoes the brake come off so it can be used with a suppressor ?
If not then it would be a non starter for a lot of people.....
when will the preorders open?You’ll just have to shoot a lot more while you go through more of the tuners settings on a thicker contour barrel.
This new ec brake uses a small and light weight which isn’t ideal but would be one of the limitations of that design. The standard for tuners is a weight around 4oz.
Check out the tmb. It’s designed to work better with thicker contour barrels.

Are you kidding ?
Suppressors are a way of life in the U.S.
I do depending on where is shooting. Half the country is communist and is scared of them and the other half is going that way fast.Seemed like a pretty genuine question to me, also you didn’t answer my question. How many people actually swap between a suppressor and brake on the same rifle?
We don’t have suppressors in Australia but if we did I don’t see why you would do that. A suppressor mount with the tuner built in so you can use one suppressor between multiple rifles is something I could see being a good idea.
Well, to start I always dope a rifle both ways. I zero for suppressed and note the offset for unsuppresed. Now if I’m going to California to shoot said rifle, I have to live the silencer at home so I shoot it with a brake. Again, for me, I’m not a big smallest tiniest group guy. I don’t shoot BR and currently I’m not reloading. these aren’t my thing. but Again, to those of us in the states, yes silencers are legal, but some states ban them. We shoot in all the states and sometimes with the same gun so we have to shoot both ways. Maybe when we r full blown communist up here it won’t matter because all the silencers will be lost in boating accidentsWhat setup do most run that swap between a brake and suppressor?
Actually, people from out of state can bring in their suppressors.LoL, not a thing in California. I am from California, I feel I am not in the U.S.
I use the 419 system exclusively for 2 reasons. The taper is solid and I can protect the barrel threads. If I accidentally cross thread and adapter and jack it up, well just replace it. Not so easy if you jack up the barrel threads.Thanks for the replies, so what's the ideal way to swap between the two? Both direct thread, or a setup like area419 with both items mounting onto the same adapter?
I was fortunate to get one from the initial order. Should be here Monday, and weather permitting, should have some results later next week.Anybody tried the EC tuner brake?

I use 419 as well. It’s a direct thread basically but better. I can take my can off and put my brake on any rifle I have with the universal adaptor... so all of them lol.Thanks for the replies, so what's the ideal way to swap between the two?

This^^^. I just got the Kinect Solutions tuner for Christmas. Can’t wait to test it.I use 419 as well. It’s a direct thread basically but better. I can take my can off and put my brake on any rifle I have with the universal adaptor... so all of them lol.
If I were to add a tuner it would be the kinetic solutions so I could just have it behind the 419 stuff.
Seriously? I am a Florida resident but could potentially get stationed in CA. That my biggest concern, I can’t use my suppressor?Actually, people from out of state can bring in their suppressors.
I wouldn't recommend taking legal advice from a random on a forum lol. That being said, the issue would probably be that you're "living" in the state because you're stationed there.Seriously?

Cops can’t even own them except for in their duty weapons purchased through departments.That's why I brought it up.. seems like things change so often with CA gun laws you never know
If you could do a collaboration with area 419 (419 style taper mount machined into the end) to piggyback off the system they already have in place, it would give you access to their whole array of suppressor adapters and brakes. But, I have no idea how the business end of that would work.I can do a tuner/adapter that stays torqued onto the barrel, then have an adapter that screws into the suppressor and then the suppressor screw onto the tuner/adapter but there's a lot going on there. Which is my biggest issue with the ats tuner, it's not torqued onto the barrel and then you're stacking other devices on top of that. I deliberately made the tmb as simple as possible with the way it mounts and with the least amount of parts.
I guess the way I would be most comfortable with would be a tuner/adapter (see picture below) and then an adapter that replaces the end cap of the suppressor like the q plan b to eliminate as many parts as possible. But how many suppressors is that possible with?

I cant believe people shoot without suppressors....Are you kidding ?
Suppressors are a way of life in the U.S.
What setup do most run that swap between a brake and suppressor?
What's the inner diameter of the end facing the muzzle device?I'm still using direct thread but plan on going QD soon....
Yeah, theres an exemption form you can fill out that allows out of state residents to bring suppressors if traveling to an organized shooting event inside the state.What?
The brake just needs standard 5/8 threading. His tuner requires something special.Yeah, theres an exemption form you can fill out that allows out of state residents to bring suppressors if traveling to an organized shooting event inside the state.
You have more rights here than actual residents.
Other than certain FFL, LEO, or IDGAF. But I wouldnt know anything about that.
The only exemption I’m aware of is you can pass through the state on your way to another state but you cannot use it or Posses (ca definition) it. It needs to be locked up and never mounted on a rifle and you cannot spend the night in CA. I have good friend in the CA bureau of firearms. I’ll ask him Monday.Yeah, theres an exemption form you can fill out that allows out of state residents to bring suppressors if traveling to an organized shooting event inside the state.

ima native Cali boy. I’m very familiar with their bullshit. its one of the reasons I bailed.
On a military base is a whole nother animal. That technically isn’t California That be federal land.CA Born and raised. Reason I know theres a event that is one of those spartan physical/ shooting challenge on a mil base and they had links to actual form for competitors. looked into it and its legit. The event post is here on SH somewhere.

I wish the ATS wasn't so expensive. By the time I get an ATS I could just grab an EC Tuner and have it installed for the same amount
with how quickly the ATS/KSS has blown up. i wouldn't be surprisedArea 4-19 probably thinks they invented the Morse taper. They don’t want to share their patented Morse taper technology with anyone.
Actually, my guess is that area 4-19 is working on their own solution.
I don’t know about the others but the EC tuner mounts to the barrel itself (you have to have a length behind the threads machined to a specific diameter) and not the threads....My only complaint with stuff like this is that we're mounting a brake on a mount on the barrel threads. For a can, it's mounting a can to an adapter, to a taper mount to the threads. There's an awful lot going on there and tolerance stacking can be a bitch. Tossing a tuner in the same spot leaves a hell of a lot going on in a critical part of the system.
the ATS uses the threads but doesnt need any special machiningI don’t know about the others but the EC tuner mounts to the barrel itself (you have to have a length behind the threads machined to a specific diameter) and not the threads.
It’s both. Federal property such as mil bases, post offices etc fall under state AND federal jurisdictions so you have to comply with both sets of laws.On a military base is a whole nother animal. That technically isn’t California That be federal land.
Thank you sir, I’ll have to do some reading on the ATS system tonight.the ATS uses the threads but doesnt need any special machining
