Check out an Indian Creek BFD deflector? I chose a Precision Armament AFAB with a BFD collar because it gave better braking than an A2 for negligible flash/noise change, along with better diffusion of the flame so it hopefully wouldn’t damage my blast deflector.
…a non-attention seeking thread title?
How about put the subject in the thread title.
This aint BARF after all.
It’s called a suppressor.
Black River Tactical Covert Comp:
The Covert Comp provides a unique combination of low blast, recoil compensation and low light performance not found in other muzzle devices.
The unique linear compensator design directs blast downrange and away from the shooter.
It moderates felt recoil, allowing for faster follow up shots.
It provides low light performance nearly as good as the common A2 style muzzle device.
The Covert Comp is a great general purpose muzzle device and make shooting more enjoyable.
Made from Enhanced Chrome-Moly steel and through hardened for maximum strength and toughness.
Not needed on AR 15/M4 in my opinion. As others said too loud, no real benefit to it , a suppressor sounds what you are looking for. Good luck.
I’m feeling pretty sold on this one.
Wasn’t looking for a suppressor, at this point at least
Thanks all for the opinions and input
Please post a review if you get one. I’ve been curious about that design for a while, but have been less than impressed with a “brand X” linear comp that I have. BRT’s design is different so it may be better - but I’m very interested to hear a review.
Before I bought my first suppressors my favorite muzzle device, hands down, were the old 3-prong PWS Triads. They exhibit very little blast and concussion to the shooter, highly comparable to the linear brakes I’ve had first hand experience with (limited to the KX3 and Levang), they help combat muzzle rise, and they are very effective flash hiders with no annoying “ping”. Every single one of my unpinned ARs wore one before I started investing in cans. My dedicated unsuppressed, unpinned guns still wear them. With that said, I have no first hand experience with the Mod 2 version that is currently available, but the “old” 3-prong Triads are pretty commonly available still. They are cheap too at $30-$60 street price.
Thanks for the mention.
The product page has a bunch of actual user reviews at the bottom.
Whenever someone sends us feedback, we just add it there.
Wow, wasn’t this a fortuitous intersection of mutual interests!
Thanks much for pointing out the testimonials, which I missed and will definitely look thru!
To get rid of or greatly reduce the pinging noise, take a small drill bit and drill a hole into each one of the tines. Drill from the tip of the tine inward, stopping at different lengths for each tine. Your basically trying to give each one of the tines a different mass so that they don’t resonate with each other.
I have a 5.56 BRT Covert Comp installed on a 20 inch barreled AR.
It definitely reduces the blast/concussion to the sides of the rifle when hunting and shooting at public ranges.
I don’t know how much difference the Covert Comp makes as far as noise for the shooter; it is installed on the only 20" barreled AR I have.
The rifle shoots sub-MOA 5 shot groups with the comp installed.
I’m going to buy another one in the next few months to install on a 16 inch barrel.
