![]() It is not so bad that it is uncomfortable, but you had better be wearing some sort of ear pro, even while hunting. You know that you have touched off a pretty pissed off rife that is for sure. I have limited experience with muzzle brakes. He used his AK to hunt hogs without wearing hearing protection, that is why he gave it up. great brake/comp and hides flash pretty well too.īuddy gave it to me because of the INCREDIBLE amount of blast directed back to the shooter. Z You should have installed a flash hider on that M1 Abram like a true Arfcomer would have done I prefer the advantages of high volume and relatively accurate fire over keeping some portion of night vision by using a flash hider, but honestly the difference in long range accuracy between a flash hider and a 74 brake may not be that big and it may be unavoidable to lose night vision when using aning its all semantics with either one. Is 74's long range performance the be all end all for SHTF? I dunno, but my perspective is coming from ex military and my priorities could be different. I've been extremely impressed at the volume of fire a full size 74 can deliver into a mansize steel target at 300 yards.about 80% hits at least firing about 1.5 - 2 rounds per second. While the common opinion in SHTF is to not engage at longer ranges and evade instead, if for some reason you do need to lay down suppressive fire to bug out, the 5.45 with a functioning 74 brake does wonders for putting rounds quickly and consistently into a small area target. Given more hands on with night shooting or using a different device I might be inclined to change my opinion though, I'll agree to that for sure.Īlso in my experience the practical side of the 74 brake is that while it may not be a huge difference in close engagements for faster followup, in my subjective opinion it makes a noticeable difference at longer ranges for putting a steady stream of rounds on target. I don't have a world of experience in night combat with rifles (all mine was on an M1 Abrams and doesn't count for this topic) but I do have some and FWIW the flash hider on the 16 hasn't really impressed me. Not claiming to be an expert by any means, just saying that from my own personal experience night vision is gone anyway once the engagement begins. Granted my only experience in night shooting is with M16A1 and A2, but IMO the birdcage didn't help with night vision IIRC, once the shooting began it was all over anyway.
