I don't get it. Manufacturer will put a radial brake on the rifle, cut to match the barrel contour, and then include a muzzle thread protector that looks like a big, honkin' wart.

I contacted the manufacturer, told 'em I'd pay extra for a thread protector cut to match the barrel contour. Nope they say, can't do it.

Ahh, actually it's "Nope they say, won't do it"...



Howa and Weatherby do. Check out the new vanguards
