The idea is to extend the life of the suppressor by reducing blast erosion. They are using the steel of the muzzle device as a kind of sacrificial first baffle in the suppressor’s function. In the real world, there’s really only two reasons to use some of these things.įirst, a lot of suppressor companies use brakes and comps as attachment devices for their suppressors. Sometimes, though, I can’t help but wonder if some of these devices are just meant to look cool. In general, as is usually the case, these hybrid compensators are outperformed by devices designed to do only one of those things well. The idea is to reduce recoil, hold the muzzle stable, and reduce flash. Because of that, there is a market for hybrid devices that try to do a little of everything. That’s no fault of his own, these kinds of projects take time and funding beyond what us normal people normally have. Vuurwapenblog did a pretty good job in this regard, though his selection was rather limited compared to something like the TTAG’s brake shootout, which only looked at rearward recoil. The compensators perform somewhere in the middle of the pack and flash hiders perform the worst.Ī proper comparison would look at both the rearward recoil forces as well as muzzle deflection. In these tests, the pure muzzle brakes like the M4-72 perform the best. In my view, one of the failings in these articles is that they usually only measure a single aspect, such as rearward recoil force. There are a lot of reviews out there comparing muzzle devices.
