Well, I think it's the coolest looking brake out there (not that that means shit) and every gun owner I've met that has one loves it, but I guess my question to you is...why? Why do you want to know? Do you want it for a certain purpose or use? There are tons of muzzle breaks out there that perform all sorts of specified duties, what makes you think you need the Surefire muzzle break?

i have heard that it is suppose to be a very good muzzle brake and isn't too shaby as a flash suppressor i am primarily looking for a muzzle brake but i would like some flash suppression if possible. do you guys have any other suggestions ?

Try the Flash-Supressing Compensator.

ATF: "It's not a ~~tumor~~ flash supressor."

why the atf article ? but i dont see how that reduce muzzle rise much. i havnt handled the sure muzzle break in person but looking at the pics it looks like it has some vertical ports to help reduce that as well

Quoted:

Because even though it reduces flash, the ATF decided that it isn't a "flash hider" and isn't illegal under legislation that bans flash hiders.

The FSC556 is based on the DNTC:

The DNTC Compensator, designed in collaboration with professional shooter Dave Neth, does its job without the harsh blast of other effective compensators on the market.

Now, I don't know how much compensation one really needs on a semi-auto 5.56, but I can tell you that it made a difference (versus a bare 16" barrel) and doesn't have the noise or blow-back associated with a lot of more aggressive muzzle brakes. It also really reduces flash on a 14.5" barrel, especially compared to my other options that would be legal in New Jersey.

Just MHO; YMMV.

HTH,
WTF
