[QUOTE="memtb, post: 3073163, member: 75451"] I'm embarrassed……I actually do have a brake on a firearm. I have one on my S&W 460. ☹️ I bought it used and it didn't come with the "brake block" (my terminology), and haven't been able to locate one! ☹️ I also shot it this morning, only about 12 rounds of 400 grainers…..one handed. I have one "charge hole"/ port in the cylinder that is "shaving" some lead. I used a box with freezer paper on the inside in an attempt to determine which is the villain! I cut a hole in the box, inserted the Smith and one hand to do the firing. The box prevented and shaved lead from hitting me in the face…..again. I quickly discovered that you must get the brake beyond the edge of the box. Failure to do so in pretty had on the box and the freezer paper. So I guess that perhaps now I'm no longer the "bastard child" of the forum! 🤔 memtb [/QUOTE]
