![]() Piemont, the region in which Torino resides, is a cultural crossroads that brings together influences from France, Switzerland, and Italy. Torino was the royal seat of the Savoy dynasty, and the regal tastes of the French court are reflected in the region’s rich dishes. There are plenty of producers who open their doors to demonstrate the process and let you taste the products. The real-deal balsamic vinegar is aged for years in wooden barrels and can cost upwards from $200 for a small bottle. Just down the road from Parma is the town of Modena, where true balsamic vinegar-Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena-is produced. A combination of salt, mountain air, and about 10 to 12 months of curing time produces a delicate, delicious meat. ![]() The left-over whey from the cheese process is fed to the pigs that are destined to become the prized Prosciutto di Parma, which gives the ham its distinctive creamy flavor. The wheels are aged for a minimum of 12 months before heading off to markets around the world. Parmigiano Reggiano is the king of grating cheeses, used to top pasta dishes far and wide, but it can also be paired with a good glass of wine. The town is a Mecca for foodies– its name is synonymous with two supreme Italian food products-Parmigiano cheese and Prosciutto di Parma. Parma is considered the country’s epicenter of cuisine. So with these points in mind, here are four destinations where you are sure to find an authentic taste of Italy. Whereas in the small towns and countryside, they adhere more closely to authentic, traditional dishes, and use local produce. In his opinion, things get “watered down” and chefs in Rome, Florence, and Venice will follow trends. His second food truth is this: You don’t eat well in the tourist cities. He asks the baristas or the people on the street. (Makes sense, right?) He never checks a guidebook when looking for somewhere to eat in a new destination. If you want to know where the locals eat, well…ask a local. One is: If you want to know where tourists eat, ask a tourist. ![]() He is passionate about food from every region of Italy and has a couple of food mottos he adheres to. I have a friend from Rome who is a retired chef. ![]() ![]() It’s also compatible with the Hybrid 46, Harvester Series, Octane Series, and Omega K Series. In an effort to help keep the cost of added accessories to a minimum, the ASR mounting system comes standard with the Omega 300, Chimera 300, Hybrid 46M, Omega 36M and Saker ASR series suppressors. This three-port muzzle brake is compatible with all SilencerCo ASR Mounts and with multiple thread and caliber options and is designed to allow for quick and easy one-handed attachment and detachment, while the three-port design greatly reduces felt recoil and muzzle climb when being used without a suppressor. And I have very little need-if any need-to swap muzzle devices in the future.When you want to be able to easily switch between suppressed and unsuppressed shooting while still reaping the benefits of reduced felt recoil and muzzle climb offered by a muzzle brake, the SilencerCo ASR Muzzle Brake is the perfect solution. That way I can slap one of my SilencerCo suppressors on any rifle I have. It’s good enough that I pretty much use some variation of the SilencerCo ASR Muzzle Brake on all my rifles, at this point. And, it saves you a bit of money if you decide to get a suppressor down the road.Īdditionally, using a muzzle brake with a suppressor mount is especially valuable if you need to pin and weld your muzzle device. This muzzle brake offers plenty of recoil reduction for typical AR-15 rounds. Use this muzzle brake, even if you don’t have a suppressor right now and you just want recoil reduction. But, if your primary concern is recoil reduction-and you don’t need the suppressor mount-you’d be better served with a dedicated muzzle brake.Īllow me to make this recommendation, though: The other muzzle brakes with suppressor mounts feel about the same, or even slightly worse.įor a muzzle brake with a suppressor mount, this muzzle brake is outstanding. I will say this, though: the only muzzle brakes that offer better recoil reduction are dedicated muzzle brakes. However, there are dedicated muzzle brakes that perform better. In terms of recoil reduction, this is a good muzzle brake. My observations here are pretty straightforward. No matter what you want to do with your suppressor, SilencerCo makes one that will fit the bill.Īll in all, the ASR mount gets two thumbs up from me. Being restricted to using SilencerCo suppressors isn’t really a limitation. However, SilencerCo makes awesome suppressors. Obviously, you can only use SilencerCo suppressors with the ASR system (there may be other manufacturers that produce ASR compatible suppressors. So, in short, I’m convinced that the ASR suppressor mount is an amazing mounting system. But it takes a lot of abusive shooting to lock up the ASR mount. And the operation is almost always flawless, despite how badly we beat them up and how often we burn them down on full-auto guns. I know that this is a sample size of one.īut we use a lot of SilencerCo suppressors on rental guns at the range. And the ASR mount still works! We didn’t even have an issue removing the suppressor after getting it hot enough to melt the muzzle device. And it’s nearly impossible to get a false positive with the locking mechanism.Īlso, referring again to the ASR Flash Hider we melted, we melted an ASR muzzle device. That’s about as much as you can ask for from a muzzle brake. And it requires very little cleaning and maintenance. Putting my minor gripe aside, the fit and finish on this muzzle brake is outstanding. So I might have this complaint about any other muzzle brake. Timing muzzle devices with shims is always kind of a pain. That’s all I’m saying.Įither way, my one complaint about the fit is pretty minor. It might just be a slight mismatch between the threading on the brake and the threading on certain barrels.īut you don’t have these sorts of issues with a crush washer. And this hasn’t been an issue with every ASR muzzle brake I’ve installed. And I ended up having to pretty much overtorque the muzzle brake to get it properly timed. Either the shims were too thick or too thin. My problem with this muzzle brake is that I’ve occasionally found it difficult to time the muzzle brake with the included shims. So why not use crush washers for muzzle brakes?īut I digress. You can use a crush washer for a compensator, though. If it’s necessary to use shims for a muzzle brake, so be it. And I’ve never had a muzzle device that’s mounted with a crush washer come loose. I find it much easier to time a muzzle device with a crush washer. I don’t know if shims are a requirement for muzzle brakes. My only complaint about the fit is the shims. ![]() This muzzle device threaded on super smoothly and easily. The threading is incredibly smooth and well finished. The next aspect of the fit and finish that I noticed is the threading for mounting the muzzle brake to your barrel. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This is because they feel insecure and less confident.
