Here's a vid and picture from the range today.  Notice the blast from the gas piston.

yea they do nothing for flash....



Did it actually reduce recoil or increase it, as some have experienced?

On the video he said it had a little extra kick. So I would say more felt recoil.

just slightly more recoil.  These guns don't kick near what an AR15 does so if that gives you a point of reference.

Muzzle flash on my Levangs appears identical to that from the std STG tulip FH and while there is a bit more perceived recoil, the payoff is less muzzle rise.

I have a levang on an 11.5 AR pistol.  Flash appears to be the same as an A2, but all of the blast is pushed forward.  I shot it once outdoors without hearing protection and my ears rang lightly for about 30 seconds, and then I was fine.

I like it for what I use it for.

I put one on my E4 and the recoil seems about the same to me     But it's less of a sharp blast to my ears for sure, that's why I got it.
