eagle10 Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 I was wondering what folks recommend for a Muzzle Brake which will help to reduce recoil, reduce muzzle climb and suppress flash as much as possible. I was looking at the JP Enterprises brake and the Benny Hill rolling thunder brake. Just curious on folks .2c, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 Flash hider AND brake? AAC Brakeout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagle10 Posted February 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 Link to the above recommendation please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle10 Posted February 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 Also what if it were more for reduced recoil than hiding flash, what would you suggest?? What are the two I listed better for, I'm new to these things, reason for all the questions, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 You listed two brakes. They don't hide any flash. Here's info on the AAC Brakeout - pick what you like:http://www.google.com/#hl=en&sugexp=les%3B&gs_rn=3&gs_ri=psy-ab&cp=6&gs_id=q&xhr=t&q=AAC+Brakeout&es_nrs=true&pf=p&tbo=d&output=search&sclient=psy-ab&oq=AAC+Br&gs_l=&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&bvm=bv.42553238,d.b2U&fp=8a7c4fdf638273d&biw=1280&bih=687 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted February 17, 2013 Report Share Posted February 17, 2013 The AAC Brakeout is a suppressor host. If you're not looking for that, the very best "next option" I could recommend is the Rainier Arms XTC Comp. It's damn near exactly what the AAC Brakeout is, without suppressor mounting capability.

eagle10 Posted February 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 Thank you for the help, I kinda was partial to this one:http://www.jprifles.com/buy.php?item=JPRE-324, but I will definitely take a look because nothing is in stone at the moment.

edgecrusher Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 That is a brake only, not a combo device Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle10 Posted February 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Well I guess I'll be going with the Rainier Arms combo version, that's more of what I want anyways, THANKS! As in the past this forum and the people that make it up are a SUPER HELP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgecrusher Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 Your welcome, and fyi I have the Rainier on two of my ar15's, love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 I have the AAC Brakeout on two of mine, AAC Blackout (flash suppressor only) on one, and will be picking up some of the RA XTC Comps in the future - at least one of them, for sure. I've got two Spike's Tactical Dynacomps, both .30 caliber, and they work well, also - but they're not as effective as the Brakeouts are. The Dynacomps will eventually be replaced with Brakeouts - not because they're not effective, but because the Brakeout is just better, IMHO.

Rsquared Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 I'm right there with you with the AAC breakout's. I just put one of them on my daniels "beater" a couple months ago, and I love it. And I also use nothing else but the brakes on (308) AR's. Mostly for the cans, but also from the sheer performance factor. Way big difference in recoil. Though.......the people on either side of me hate me. But that's ok. I just tell em to get in line. <laughs> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle10 Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 I have been to Rainer Arms site and cannot find this "XTC Comp", found it for 5.56 and 6.8, but it's not listed for the .308/7.62, if you have a link please send it.

unforgiven Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 http://vtsupply.com/rainier-arms-xtreme-tactical-compensator-xtc-flash-hider.html Would it work relative to size and thread pitch? <dontknow> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a .30 cal comp, threaded 5/8 x 24. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eagle10 Posted March 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2013 98Z5V, thanks so much, got me one coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Awesome, brother - grab a pic or two once it comes in, and it's mounted. I don't have one of the XTCs yet, but I'll be getting some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowrider Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 I installed the YHM phantom brake on my ar10. It will accept the 7.62 phantom suppressor. I also have the phantom flash hider on my 5.56.And the bennie there are that it will accept the 7.62 suppressor as well. One suppresor two calibers/guns.

Is that a special 5.56 Phantom QD mount, for the 7.62 can? YHM made the mounts different on purpose, so people didn't accidentally mount a 5.56 can on a 308 rifle...

jrtMA Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 My biggest problem with muzzle brake/flash hiders is which one to pick. There are literally 10 that I could quickly come up with that I would love to have. I'll probably be going with a JP or Troy for my next build. I have little practical experience with anything but a standard A2 though. I hope to give a positive review on the PWS FC30 soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robocop1051 Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 I have the PWS FSC30 on a 7.62x39 build. I need to spend more time shooting it instead of adding more crap to it. Definitely aggressive looking! It's one hell of a comp too. I'd say it was damn close to my BattleComps. I have two BC v1.5's and two BABC's. The BABC on my 300Blk is probably the most comparable. The BC does a better job, but that could partially be due to the better cartridge. I've never shot a BC and a PWS with the same cartridge. Totally worth the money! If a BC price tag scares you, the PWS is an affordable alternative. I bought the FSC30 for $99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice product but the 7.62 is so expensive it might be out for what I'd be even willing to spend on a brake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only drawback is it is loud, but does all else well. On the Larue I have a Surefire brake, and that also works well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
