| I want an compensator for my 16" AR 15 and have been looking around. My budget is small due to the fact soon I will be buying a designated upper for 3 gun like the Stag 3G. So for the meantime I want to upgrade this uppers flash hider. I still want to keep this thing range friendly so I dont need a compensator that is too loud for my fellow shooters. So I guess I am asking for a hybrid compesator/flash hider. I want the results of a compensator but the sound and effectiveness of a flash hider. My top choice right now is the Yankee Hill 5c2. Good price at $20. Any other suggestions out there?https://www.primaryarms.com/Yankee_Hill_Machine_Phantom_Comp_Flash_Hider_p/yhm-28-5c2.htm?CartID=1 |
| Try a Troy mid evil flash hider or the claymore both are not too terribly expensive. The claymore does a good job of pushing concusion down range similar to a noveske pig if you are worried about being nice to people shooting next to you. or there is the tried and try vortex flash hider if you are set on a flash hider... All 3 are sitting right around $50 |
| I am not dead set on a flash hider. I just know this upper will eventually be a casual shooter, I want a compensator but I just dont want the loudness of one. So I didnt know if there is anything else out there for this appication. I will be using it for 3gun till I can afford an Stag 3g rifle. |

They have a lot of major muzzle devises on the market in one place so you can see and compare most of them on the same site without having 15 tabs open... I use them and brownells to window shop then I go to my local arms dealer and have him order what I want...

I just decided to go with the Miculek compensator. Got it in this week and installed it, looks great just need to take it to the range when I get a day off from work. I finally gave up on the search on a flash hider / compensator hybrid. The Miculek is very reasonable priced and the positive reviews out weighed the negative.
Thanks Guys I would add a pic of it on my rifle but I dont want to spend over an hour trying to upload a picture on this site, plus you already knows what it looks like..... |

Quoted:
My battle comp isn't as loud as most of my comps and it works well. It seems to be a trade off. Loud = Effective I shot a friend's rifle with a Battlecomp last weekend. I was impressed with how effective it was. Not as good as a JP, Titan or Rolling Thunder, but less concussion if you are standing slightly behind and to the side of the shooter. |
