Does anyone have a brake/compensator on a light weight barrel?
What model are you using, any Pics? I'm looking at the JP Comp Thanks Dave |
| I *had* a stag arms comp on a 16" lightweight barrel. Worked/looked ok but I got tired of pissing off the people in the next lane by blowing gasses in their face so it was replaced with a standard A2 flash hider. In the end, the recoil is already light enough that I don't think it matters much. |

It's for my wife's carbine. Where I shoot it's rare that anyone else is there and we're space 20 yards apart. So noise or blowing someone's hat off with hot gases is nonexistent. The few times a year I do shoot on a public range, I have different guns I like to shoot. I'm looking for something that will get her on target faster and if it works well I'll put one on my gun too.
Did the comp make the carbine seem front heavy? What comp did you use? |

Quoted:
i've heard good things about the battlecomp. i plan on getting one to put on my MSAR E4. I have a Battlecomp. It weighs 1.8 oz, which is slighltly less that an A2 FH. I've only shot it on one range trip so I don't have much experience with it yet. I shoot at a covered range and I noticed that it is much louder than a normal FH.

I have had good luck from Shrewd's. They can be had in several profiles and threads from Brownells. Marty made this one for my .358 HDH which is .730 at the muzzle and I had another guy make one for my .338 Federal, also .730 at the muzzle. They look the same except for the hole in the end of the break and both work very well.

I have this one. Haven't used anything to compare it to, but I'm happy.
