Ferfrans CQB Modular Muzzle Brake

Muzzle Brakes are an amazing addition to your rifle, they’re great at reducing recoil and muzzle rise and help speed up follow up shots. They’re not without their drawbacks however, they’re pretty loud as most brakes redirect the sound and muzzle blast to the side or back at the shooter. Some brakes can also kick up dust and dirt while shooting in prone. The Ferfrans CQB Modular Muzzle Brake is a new style of brake that tries to reduce some of these downfalls. The Ferfrans brake comes with what they call a Concussion Reduction Device which is essentially a quick attach/detach shroud that helps redirect concussion and sound forward away from the shooter. While the Ferfrans CQB isn’t the only muzzle brake to come with a shield attachment, theirs is a bit different in that it includes ports which help aid in reducing muzzle climb and recoil. You can see in the videos below that with the Concussion Reduction Device it still does a pretty good job at reducing muzzle rise. They retail for $179.95, check out Ferfrans.net for more info.

    Hanging 10 ozs off the muzzle has to reduce climb anyway.

    The AR pistol concept is growing on me, particularly now that the BATFE has explicitly stated that the buffer tube is not a stock, regardless of what you do with it. It is as close to a PDW as can be bought off the shelf, carried in a normal briefcase or truck side door pocket, or kept in a file drawer. And adopting H&K sling-braced techniques from the ancient days of the last century, like 1985, accuracy and speed is a shooter issue, not gun dependent.
