That's a muzzle break? My gun-ology is weak, so my understanding is likely flawed, but I thought muzzle breaks worked by venting gasses at angles that wouldn't push back on the gun. That thing doesn't look to be vented, so I have to ask; art fail, or does that thing just work strangely?

Since it's a Russian experimental gun that never went into production I'm having a slightly less than easy time finding info about it. Some just say it's a muzzle break, others say it acts as a flash hider and suppressor in addition to that.

Apparently-- according to the photos the vents on the muzzle brake are on the front; I suppose having the escaping gas forced through several holes albeit on the front would mitigate recoil as opposed to having one opening.
