Gunsmithing Surefire brake help

[Big_Country]

I just got a Surefire brake for threads 3/8 24. I have an instructions manual and it comes with several color coded spacers. I am having a real hard time understanding the manual and am scratching my head mixing matching these rings trying to figure out which rings I am suppose to be using here.

I am sure someone with a college degree made this thing because it has absolutley nothing to do with common sense. You figure when you go to the page 3/8 24 thread that it would give you your color codes but it does not.

Sorry about the complaining it's just frustrating.

Thanks,

Re: Surefire brake help

The color coded rings are shims. They are all differnet sizes. You find the correct combination that will correctly time the brake.

Either through trial and error or simple math.

Sounds like a job for the local gunsmith haha. I have no confidence in the ability to properly allign those boogers. While I am on the subject here, does anyone know a good price for a oversize bolt install on R700 bolt?

Much love,
