Looking to Replace my Flash Supressor with a Muzzle Brake

[Ruskull]

Any ideas?

I've been looking at the Troy Industries Claymore & Medieval models, both have good looks but I want to know wqhich would be better for limiting the barrel rise.

I'm open to other options but I like the fact that these have aggressive tips which can be used for an improvised breaching device.

I'm going to try the Jerry Miculek comp. Have read some good reviews on it and at $50 I feel I don't have much to lose.It may not be as cool looking as some of the others but function is what I'm after.

Jerry Miculek Comp for AR15:

Looks pretty cool to me. In fact I think my friend has one of these in stainless.......................

Here is the link to the one your friend has...JP Rifles

Yes it does look like the Jerry Micuek comp but at a slightly higher price point

I would bet they both perform about the same...

What's up Rob. I was close wasn't I?

Some other options:

Yankee Hill Phantom. Effective, inexpensive, and it looks cool. This is advertised as a combo flash suppressor and comp.

AAC Non-mount Single-chamber. Adds minimal length, and reviews say it's effective. I think it looks really good, even if it doesn't have "teeth" on the end to barrel thump zombies.

Also I hear that the AK style comps work quite well. Although inexpensive, I find thm ugly.....

I like the Yankee Hill Phantom.......................I'll add that to my review list, thanks.

"F-ugly" is a better word Rob, although I'm not going for looks as a prerequisite, they're just too damn ugly to tarnish the overall gun look. They also look very long..................

I have the Rainier Arms XTC one on several ARs, including my M&P15OR. I also have the PWS FSC556--both are great at recoil reduction, muzzle rise, and fast follow-up engagements. Note thqt both also send a wicked shockwave and spray across shooters close on your right and left.

The Rainier XTC is $57.

Thanks bud! That one does look good too and the price sounds very reasonable.

Rainier Arms XTC captured from some video of mine. If the XTC is out of stock, I would call Rainier Arms to ask when they expect some in--worth it.

If someone fired that next to me I would be pi.......upset.

In a couple of carbine courses we fired pretty close to each other and the XTC and PWS FSC556 were well liked by shooters but not appreciated by anyone standing next to those of us who had them. Sound and gases tend to vent to the sides very effectively....

Very convincing. I'm going to have to look into it. Thanks

I was trying to put this up earlier, but had issues. Here is a video of me shooting my RRA Tactical CAR15 with Rainier Arms XTC on a 25yds range. That muzzle compensator breathes puffs of gas like a fire breathing dragon.

That's about as annoying as a loud exhaust on a beat up Civic.

But if it keeps your muzzle in the right spot and not used LE/MIL ops then I wouldn't worry about the guy next to you. I sold my Smith Vortex and A2 birdcages and now have FSC556 and XTC comp on all my ARs.
