The question is straightforward enough.

Flash hider? Brake? Comp?

Which is your favorite for a general purpose AR, and why?

A2. Why? It's cheap.

Literally the only reason.

Pick your flavor of suppressor and get the simplest/cheapest muzzle device that will let you mount it. Done.

The Precision Armament AFAB is the best combo muzzle device

This coming from an owner of multiple cans (best option), a MAMS, and GA Flash Comp

Even more old school A2 birdcage works pretty good.

Golf ball launcher.  Works with blanks.

Makes an excellent improvised less-than-lethal launched impact device that leaves a hell of a bruise.

That's why wilson combat made their flash hider. It isn't exactly like the Meyers, but my understanding was that's what they were going for

AK brake.

So when those guys who claim to be my internet friends try to ask how many grenades I would own if they were legal, I can bump a mag and make them stop.

AK74 Brake on a 14.5"

I call it the headache maker.

You want some space at the public range.. pull that bad boy out with some 45gr varmint loads.. boom.. people leave two tables deep on each side of you.

And it freaking works GREAT in full auto!!!!

A2 because of value.

Although I do really like the griffin flashcomp for a nice upgrade.

Both of which mount silencers.

I had one of those for a while. Really made friends at the range.

A2 is what I use on things without cans (the horror).

A2.

It actually does a pretty good job of being a combination flash suppressor/compensator and they're $10.

I use an A2 because I'm cheap.  If I were going to upgrade, I would go with a Smith Vortex.
