eric.goodwin.376 Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 What is the best muzzle break for running 3 gun in your opinion? I am running a factor right now and know there is something better out there. Thanks in advance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieD Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 JP 3-port is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 No one agrees BUT, lots of great discussion on this topic in the archives. Check with Pat Kelley - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve RA Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 JP is good - JP tank comp is better but not legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Archbell Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Take a look at Kahntrol solutions, the new hyperfire comp, or the classic Jerry miclick comp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk What division are you shooting in, Tactical or Open (among others...)? That changes what's legal. The JP Recoil Eliminator (AKA "tank brake" :-) ) is legal for Open but not Tactical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EliteGuard Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 JP 2 port compensator works great. I haven't tried the JP 3 port comp. I experimented with the Lantac Dragon for a bit. From my limited testing it appeared to shoot flatter than the JP 2 port, but I kept feeling more back blast than the JP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry White Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Tried and true, the Triangle Shooting Sports Rolling Thunder, now available in titanium, was ahead of it s time then and still is.

coolcw1987 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Another vote for the SJC titan there youtube videos of them running it on full auto ar15's and it doesnt look like it even moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StealthyBlagga Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 There are lots. I like the JP, but also have others on some rifles. They all seem to work pretty much the same, at least not enough difference to lose sleep over. Pick a mainstream competition-oriented brake that you like the look of and move on. Low mass operating system + practice ammo will make more of a difference than that between a cheap vs. expensive brake IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pcew73 Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 I just ordered a M4-72 just base on the reviews. I am also interested in checking out the new Coda Evolution Fury. Anyone have any experience with it yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both tried on exactly the same rifle. The first one is the tried and true classic Miculek brake. Recently tried the Miculek and I really like the design and the unbeatable price. The second one is the Precision Firearms brake which I didn't actually try, but I've used the one with basically the exact same design which is the PRI QC. This one from Hardened Arms looks exactly like the PRI QC, but I've never used it and I've never heard of Hardened Arms outside of a deal found on Slickguns. I think the clocked ports on these really help keep the gun neutral for right-handers. Pat Kelley's second test seemed to show very neutral behavior for the Arredondo nXg comp, which has clocked ports similar to the brakes above. The Arredondo is crazy pricey to me. I am using the JP 3-port comp on a 308 AR build and it is incredibly flat compared to the JP 2-port that was on it before and a Dynamic resistance brake I tried for it. I also have the Carbon Arms Gas Hog on another rifle and I really like that too. It replaced a JP 2-port comp. Not as neutral as the PRI QC design and maybe not even the Miculek. But unlike the PRI QC types it doesn't have the clocked ports and I didn't clock it at all, so it may work great for lefties too. I'm not sure how the clocked designs would work for lefties. With all these comps tried, I really agree with what a lot of the top shooters here say. Find a proven comp that you like (JP, Rolling Thunder, SJC, Miculek, etc.) and practice, practice, practice. The differences between them won't be so much that it would ever improve your performance more than practice. I don't have much time so I mess around with gear more than I practice.

I put it on today and while it keeps the gun in the same spot and follow up shots are quick I can’t take all the gas back in my face or the felt concussion. I’m going to try the Coda fury. They are local and sponsor our state 3 gun series. I’ll post up some results after I get it.

mpom Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 FWIW, another highly rated comp/muzzle brake in the Truth About Guns test #3 http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2016/10/jeremy-s/ar-15-muzzle-brake-shootout-3/ is the Voodoo Innovation Jet Comp. Hard to find info on the Jet Comp, which dates back to D.R. Middlebrook, but the results of the TAG tests are pretty impressive, plus cost is reasonable...https://www.joeboboutfitters.com/Voodoo-JETCOMP-1-2x28-LifeCoat-223-5-56-p/voodoo-fh-jetcomp556.htm Just got one, will test it out in a few weeks (recovering from shoulder surgery). Running the Dynamic Resistance comp, which works very well but causes some muzzle dip, I think due to 2 large top ports. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
