I have been looking for a new muzzle device. I use a Midwest 3 chamber comp right now, looking for something different.
What do you like to use? Looking for something a little more quiet.

If you want something quieter than a brake, get a flash hider or even better a Can. I personally use muzzle brakes, noise be damned.
What ever suppressor i run, has that brake on it. While very annoying to other shooters, i like the brakes over f/hiders. It acts as one more "blast baffle" in my suppressor.
For unsuppressed rifles, basic YHM 3 prong style units.
If you want a good effective comp with less concussion, there are three that on the top of that pile. Seekins STC, Dynamic Resistance and the Gas Hog.
51T all the things
Great suggestions. I will be looking into these.
Normally I shoot alone or at outdoor ranges that are pretty spread apart. What brought this on was swapping weapons with an ex-military buddy. His DD AR and my Colt were two different beasts in the noise department.
A muzzle brake will greatly reduce recoil but will be loud. You will likely shoot fireballs out of a short barrel
A flash hider is great for reducing flash signature, but you will have more felt recoil.
I tried to bump fire a rifle with a brake, recoil was reduced so much that it wouldn't even "bump". Added a blast chamber to direct the blast forward and I was able to bump fire it.
I have AAC cans, so i run all 51T brakes (except for 1 flash hider)

Why are you looking for a new one? What are trying to accomplish with it?
I've found the BCM Comp to be less abusive than most brakes but still effective at reducing recoil & muzzle rise.
