THE MARKSMAN PRS BY A-TEC OFFERS A UNIQUE AND REMARKABLE CAPABILITY
Where to buy in store: Stockists
This system offers the operator the ability to easily switch between a muzzle brake and a hybrid suppressor.
When you want maximum recoil reduction, expose the muzzle brake included with the product. When you want minimum noise, easily attach the suppressor. The suppressor features an in-built muzzlebrake end cap for muzzle-rise control; this feature is unique in the market.
This suppressor trades away some noise control for reduced muzzle flip and reduced recoil.
Designed with professional users in mind and built to withstand tough conditions, the suppressor has a quality construction with durable steel. Suppressor finished with Cerakote and the muzzle brake is treated with black nitrate, achieving a hard wearing surface.
Package includes Suppressor, Muzzle brake and thread adaptor.

MOUNTING THE A-TEC MARKSMAN BRAKE
Do a dry run of the below steps before adding thread lock. Especially regarding the timing of the brake.
- Place the rifle in a vice.
- Thoroughly clean and degrease all components and threads.
- Screw the stainless steel thread adaptor all the way into the muzzlebrake, and one full turn out again. The thread adaptor has the small unthreaded section inserted first. When running through this the second time, after applying thread locker, wipe off any excess thread locker here.
- Screw on and torque up the black contra nut against the rear shoulder of the muzzlebrake with the supplied wrench. For barrels with larger diameter than 23mm at the shoulder: Ensure the rear face of the steel thread adaptor is slightly proud of the black contra nut, one thread is enough. This is so the barrel thread shoulder meets the adaptor surface and not the contra nut.
- Now screw the muzzlebrake with the thread adaptor and contra nut on to the rifle muzzle thread.
- Grasp the muzzlebrake and apply torque to the muzzlebrake by hand so that the thread adaptor is tight on the muzzle thread shoulder. We are using the muzzlebrake locked on by the contra nut to get the thread adaptor torqued up on the muzzle thread shoulder.
- Grasp the muzzlebrake and loosen only the contra nut with the wrench without loosening the thread adaptor on the muzzle thread.
- Adjust the muzzlebrake rotation so the brake gas ports are directed horizontal. Try screwing on further first. If you hit the stop before achieving level, unscrew until level.
- Reapply torque to the contra nut while grasping the muzzlebrake to lock it in the level position.
- Now disassemble, apply thread locker to the internal thread of the muzzlebrake to secure the adaptor into the muzzlebrake when it cures. Do the above steps again to permanently attach. Use Loctite 638 or equivalent.
- Let the thread locker set before attempting detachment from the rifle.
