Update- What The Wolf Pup Taught Me and Other Musings

Gimme a Brake!

The Wolf Pup originally started with an A2 birdcage. Concussion was a bit more than it was from the 16 inch AR but not uncomfortable for the shooter. Muzzle blast wasn’t noticeable unless the light was dim, like at an indoor range or the dark side of twilight. Not willing to leave well enough alone, I swapped out the A2 for the Battlecomp.

The difference made itself apparent from the first shot. Recoil was quicker and not as sharp and the red dot didn’t move off the target as much during recoil. However, muzzle flash was visible even during lightly overcast daylight and the concussion brutal. The Battlecomp has been tried on 20 inch and 16 inch barrels with no comments from my shooting partners. On the shorter Wolf Pup, they’ve regularly been commenting on blast and flash accompanied with dirty looks.

I had the privilege to shoot with a well known trainer during an out of state trip to visit a friend. The trainer told me “You are a guest on my range, but I’d like to point out that muzzle brakes would not be allowed in a class.” He’s right. With the BC in place, the Wolf Pup is brutal for other shooters to be around. Time to put the A2 back on

Wolfpup needs a Covert Comp to tame that blast.
