tk4 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Is the Miculek louder than the QC, or is the difference in noise and concussion similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
co-exprs Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Same. Performance is nearly identical. Same noise, same muzzle control, same size. Pick the one you like and run it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk4 Posted December 25, 2012 Author Share Posted December 25, 2012 Ok. The Miculek is cheaper. Should I expect these to be louder than my PWS comp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
co-exprs Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 No. About the same. Most comps are about the same with only a couple specific models being especially concusive and loud. Miculek will serve you well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike4045 Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 If you want louder get a Rolling Thunder comp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 JP "tank comp" isn't among the quietest either ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhill Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 Whats a little noise if it works really well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk4 Posted December 25, 2012 Author Share Posted December 25, 2012 I need a couple new comps for new rifles. My PWS works ok and doesn't seem any louder than a flash hider. I can't shoot as well when using an obnoxiously loud comp. From what I have heard the Miculek should work a little better than the PWS. It is a lot cheaper, so if it isn't any louder I guess I will pick up a couple. Any other opinions of the noise the Miculek puts out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benny hill Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 If you are hearing your rifle go off, you are not concentrating enough. When in the heat of a stage, I never remember hearing it go off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbauer67 Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 I have rifles with both of those comps and they are almost the same, but the MSTN puts a little bit less blast on you. For value the mickulek can't be beat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puma Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 The MSTN has my vote. It is more effective in reducing lift than the Miculek and 'quieter'. After trying some of the more popular ones I found the MSTN to be a close second to the Seekins muzzle brake. You get what you pay for. However the Miculek should not be denied for it also is much better than some of the more expensive and popular muzzle brakes. And for the price the Miculek is worth every penny.

vdub5818 Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 I know it is somewhat off topic, but why not a battle comp? I know its a "jack of all trades master of none", but for recoil control how much is actually NEEDED? We are talking 5.56 right? I just like mine because it manages recoil well, minimal backblast, and minimal muzzle blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleepswithdogs Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 (edited) I know it is somewhat off topic, but why not a battle comp? I know its a "jack of all trades master of none", but for recoil control how much is actually NEEDED? We are talking 5.56 right? I just like mine because it manages recoil well, minimal backblast, and minimal muzzle blast. When I went from no comp to comp on my 223 Mini 14, it made a large difference in my times. With no comp the barrel would rise just a bit, but it required correction, required bring it back down on to target again. When the comp was added I could stay on target and just keep squeezing the trigger, For the most of the world recoil in a 223 isn't significant, but for very competitive 3g it is a factor in better times. So, people try and run the best they can find. Tar Edited December 25, 2012 by Sleepswithdogs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
co-exprs Posted December 25, 2012 Share Posted December 25, 2012 For a general purpose rifle the battle comp is a great choice. As you said, jack of all traits, master of none. For competition use, you want the sights to lock onto a target like a tractor beam. A good competition comp will allow effortless pairs 15 to 20yds further out than the battle comp. the trade off for the extra speed is noise and signature. I just got a Griffin comp (battle comp copy) for my utility rifle build. For what it's worth, I do like the look of the MSTN brake better than the miculek, even though they work about the same.
