| I tried to search this in the forums but the search is not working for me. I have a Colt H-Bar and it has a nice comp on it but it back blasts at the people sitting next to me at the range. It is pretty bad. I am looking for a comp that would lessen that or just a solid screw on barrel extension. Any info would be awesome. Thank You All! |

You could try this one, but I have no idea how well it works.

| You could be a test dummy for me and get one that vents out the front from AlumaliteUsa to see if they work well or not since I can't find any reviews :) |

I like my MB556Ks, they tend to clear off the surrounding benches so I can put my stuff on them.  That seems to be true of mine. I don't spend a ton of time at a proper range but when I do I try to find a bench away from people so they don't get annoyed. It sucks to sit next to people with huge comps. |

In search of the 'Holy Grail' are you??  LOL. It's a gun range what do they want ..... Also the troy claymore vents all the gasses out the front +1 On the Troy Claymore. How good is the Claymore at reducing muzzle climb? I've read that it's not that good, in which case I don't say how it would be worth the money. |
Others annoyed by noise and muzzle blast? Try shooting a pair of .44cal '51 Navys with real black powder I ruffle some feathers big time when I do that at the range
The Wilson combat "tactical brake" (it looks like a less open A1 FH) seemed (surprisingly) pretty quiet to me compared to other brakes. |

The battlecomp is AWESOME. Do you feel it's too loud for close in? Not in my experience. Is it louder?...a bit so. But not deafening and the side blast is minimal. I've found the BC to be the most range friendly and effective comp out there. The JP and Surefire brakes both do a bit better job with muzzle rise, but are both obnoxious with noise, concussive blast and flash. And solely speaking comps...I've found the PWS, dynacomp and BC to all be pretty on par with muzzle rise, but the BC is quieter, less concussive and a bit better with flash suppression. |

Got a Griffin Armament M4-SD compensator last week. Only put about 100 rounds through it and so far I'm very impressed. My range is really loud because the sun shade over top the shooting benches is steel and echos horribly, but my shooting buddies didn't notice I had a comp on instead of the A2 birdcage until I pointed it out to them. Joeboboutfitters has them on sale really cheap right now, almost half of what a Battle Comp will run you for 95% of the performance of a BC.

I've ran the Levang Linear on a Kel tec PLR-16 5.56 pistol, it's great for blast control on a short barrel but does nothing for muzzle jump.
I just added an Effin A comp made by Ares Armor to my 7.62x39 upper. Only had it out once to 'tune it up' but so far it's worked well for me, big reduction in muzzle jump, although no difference in recoil which I expected due to it's design.. I've got mine indexed so the upper rows are at 11 & 1 o'clock and I've only opened the upper ports so it only vents up. My spotter who usually sits on the other side of the shooting table at our favorite public range didn't notice any difference. |

I have a RRA LE Compensator, and although I do not have a large pool to work from in the noise department, it seems to be REALLY loud if you are off the sides of it. If my wife is shooting and I am sitting back and behind her, I will jump/flinch every time it goes off. You get a nice concussion wave with each shot.
I think I need to try a Battlecomp..... |

Ever been at the range next to someone with a .45-70 with a comp and no place to move to? 
How about a double rifle in .416 Rigby? Jeeeez, after that I would have begged to be next to a guy with and AR and a comp. |
