Here is the muzzle brake that fits FSB. https://www.ebay.com/itm/224071994414
The exit hole diameter is 22mm. The front of the FSB is 21.5mm.

The first attempt at the shooting range was unsuccessful, likely because the gas block was not being installed correctly, resulting in reduced gas flow. After taking 20 manual single shots, a shell became stuck inside the chamber, so I will have some extra work to do. The new setup has been made with one of my spare Yugo rifles.
Also, I removed the Yugo short barrel and adjusted the gas block along with the chamber honing but I'm not sure if I will put it back because the Russian barrel is in excellent condition and will fit perfectly with some tricks.

The barrel with the pitted bore and the frozen gas valve in the grenade launcher position  :) will be replaced on my second receiver and stored until the new project begins.

I replaced the defective Yugo barrel with a good Russian one. The project involving the Yugo receiver and the Russian barrel setup is complete.

Today, the Yugo-Russian SKS received more modifications. The FSB was pinned, and the barrel was threaded with M14x1 LH. The rifle now has two options: a bayonet or a muzzle brake.

Tomorrow, another attempt will be made at the shooting range. The two SKS rifles, one an underfolder with a Yugo action and the other Yugo-Russian will be tested.
The new project " Colapsible, sliding, retractable stock" has began.
