This is a bit of a spin-off of a thread about compensators, flash hiders, and brakes from the AR Technical section.
I have a new DSA FAL Tactical carbine with an A-2 birdcage. Recoil is very manageable given proper adjustment of the gas system, but curious about tweaking things for even less recoil.
I'd be curious as to other folks experience with comps and brakes on .308 rifles.
In particular the trade off between recoil reduction to noise increase. Obviously there is "no free lunch". But with maximum recoil reduction with high decibels at one end of the spectrum, and minimal recoil reduction at lower relative decibels at the other end of the spectrum, is there a muzzle device that someone has used that strikes a good balance?
Thanks in advance for any input.
