AR15 Muzzle Device Without Obnoxious Blast?
What muzzle devices are you folks using that don't have some god awful blast that makes everyone else at the range hate you? I have an A2 flash hider that I think I'll put on the gun for now. I like the YHM phantom so I may buy one of those. I had one in the past and don't remember it putting off a blast like this.
While I love getting photos like this, the blast makes it pretty unpleasant to shoot. Yes, I did have earplugs in.

Look into a linear comp. They direct the blast downrange. I can not recommend any specific one. I just use A2 on everything.

Re: AR15 Muzzle Device Without Obnoxious Blast?
A2 (and A1) have been working fine for 50 years, I cant figure why someone would put on something that enhanced the blast/flash just to look cool, and what the OP said, piss everyone to the right or left of them at the firing line
Same goes for AR and AK pistols, someone sets up next to me with one, I pack it in for the day if no other bench space is available

I like the KAW linear comp on my 11'' pistol. My rifles just get a thread protector, no need for any more length or noise.

Re: AR15 Muzzle Device Without Obnoxious Blast?
I'll just put the A2 on it for a while and see how I feel about it. I have a linear comp too but I don't like it. Definitely not as loud though. I can't remember what it's like to shoot with the birdcage on the gun so that should be interesting. This rifle has probably had a half dozen or more different muzzle devices on it in the past year.
I don't see the appeal of AR or AK pistols for that reason. I love shooting my Mossberg 500 so I wouldn't say I'm recoil sensitive but I hate the excessive blast from short barrels and muzzle brakes. Trading more recoil for less severe of an explosion going off in my face every time I pull the trigger would be fine with me.

I can tell you from experience, do NOT use the Fortis RED. It works very well, even with FA weapons, but good lord does it create a concussive blast!

Buy a silencer, no blast, less recoil... the 4 piece Bulgarian brake does a good job but I don't remember if it comes in 1/2x28. Or a jmac customs laf

A2 has always worked fine for me.
