AR Muzzle Device Options

[Glocktogo]

OK rifle gurus, I need a little advice on muzzle breaks. I had decided to get an 18" Noveske SPR, when I saw they offer a Rogue Hunter with the same barrel. The RH should be a much lighter rifle than the SPR, while still offering the same accuracy potential at longer ranges.

I plan to set it up with a dual optic. I'm using a Bushnell Elite 6500 Tactical 2.5X16X40 Mil-Dot scope in a Larue LT-104 mount. I also plan to mount an Aimpoint H1 at the 1 O'Clock position just forward of the receiver on a Daniel Defense offset mount.

Now for the tricky part. I had originally intended to go with the AAC Breakout flash hider/comp/suppressor mount. The RH does not have the Switchblock though. I started wondering how often I'd want to mount the can on an 18" gun? Noveske offers options on muzzle attachments, so I thought I'd ask for opinions.

This rifle wil be used primarily in the prone for longer range targets. However, I might want to dabble in 3 Gun/Multi-Gun with it. It may also see limited use in a full auto application. So should I get:

AAC Breakout (combo flash hider/comp/suppressor mount, $0 upgrade):

AAC Muzzle Break (combo muzzle break/suppressor mount, $75 upgrade):

SJC Compensator (comp only, $20 upgrade):

Or install some other comp once I get the rifle in? Help me out here rifle gurus!!!

I would still get the Breakout of those. But my are worth what you paid for them. My reasons: it does the most things, comp, FH, suppressor mount for the lowest cost.

Question, how much do you really need a comp on a .223 AR? Especially one with an 18" barrel and scope?

You should get one of the suppressor mounts in case you ever do want to use your M4-2000, but if not, keep the A2.

The Brakeout doesn't do well at muzzle braking, or flash hiding. Of all of those definitely the AAC Brake. The AAC brake actually is a very good brake on a shorty AR. Haven't shot a long gun with it, but double taps are a blast. it is really loud.

I can't believe rob has been in here and there has been no mention of the triple tap.

The Surefire MB556K is what I am putting on my 11.5 SBR

Excellent setup with minimal POI shift when switching from suppressed to unsuppressed. However, it will not fit my M4-2000.

I'll be different and vote SJC Titan. You got other toys for the can!

Breakout....you know you're going to use the can on it sometimes.

Option #2. I just put one on my 18" Noveske upper in anticipation of a new suppressor.

BattleComp. They're coming out with a suppressor version soon.
