Just because it's a McGowen barrel doesn't mean that they need to be the ones to thread it and doesn't mean you have to use their brake. Unless they give you a better deal financially because it's one of their barrels.
I don't get too worked up over theory on how much a rifle moves before the bullet leaves the barrel... or how much the rifle doesn't move. Or if in reality it's me vs the rifle. I just know that lighter weight rifles shoot better for me when I have a brake on them. Maybe it's all my fault and has nothing to do with the rifle. I'm ok with that. Maybe other guys wouldn't need a brake to shoot the same rifle consistently accurate. I'm ok with that too.
Even though I am a fan of brakes, many of my AR15's only have the thread protector and no muzzle device at all because it's not needed on a semi auto 223.
