A quality muzzle brake is an often overlooked yet infinitely valuable component of any AR-15 build. By redirecting expelled gasses, it can soften recoil and reduce muzzle rise. Here are five of the best muzzle brakes to enhance the shootability of your AR-platform rifle.
When selecting a muzzle brake, functionality should always supersede aesthetic preferences since the goal is to improve performance. Sleek designs may look cool, but a sturdy muzzle device that incorporates precision cuts and porting will achieve the desired effect without adding unnecessary bulk or sending a blast of gas back into the shooter's face.
This stylish muzzle brake deftly blends thoughtful design with increased performance to mitigate felt recoil when firing multiple rounds in rapid succession. As a bonus, the attractive stainless steel finish offers a striking contrast to other less functional, less evocative designs on the market.
For a low-profile option, it's tough to beat the TPI Competition muzzle brake from Tiger Rock. The TPI Competition is as sleek as it is effective and is an affordable upgrade that will drastically transform the recoil impulse of your AR-15 for smoother, faster shooting.
The Epsilon 556SL can be securely installed on your firearm while still allowing for regular cleaning and maintenance without removing the muzzle device. It features lightweight construction and chambers that are engineered for improved gas flow for significantly reduced recoil.
Providing excellent recoil stabilization, the Q-Comp is a hybrid muzzle brake / compensator with minimal side blast, concussion, and muzzle flash. Wilson Combat has a reputation for building tough, durable parts that shooters can trust to perform flawlessly for a lifetime.
The Gunfighter Mod 0 is specifically designed for CQB applications, generating less concussion and noise than most other muzzle brakes. It is simple yet elegant, affording shooters superior recoil mitigation and control while concealing muzle flash.
Once you've selected a muzzle device, it's time to install it on your AR-15 rifle. Be sure to watch our video for an easy installation guide and make sure you get it right the first time.
