    I switched uppers, both the uppers are 16"- the Comp'd one is a Mid-length though, and fired one shot without ear pro with the A2, and I could tolerate it just fine.

    Side blast with the BCM comp for me, while a friend was shooting, was not bad.

    So, the BCM comp is louder than the A2. It helps the rifle shoot much softer though.

    The A2 is not a comp nor a brake, but it is the "mil spec" muzzle device, so it provides an easy baseline.

    There is no other sign besides that.

    I've always wanted to give the Griffin Armament comps a try. Reviews all seem to be very favorable and the price is right. I'll be dropping some money on a suppressor this year, but haven't decided if I want to go for the tried and true NT4 or a newer QDC suppressor. Since I've now got NT4 mounts for two carbines I'm sort of leaning that way, but I reserve the right to change my mind.

    My experience re SBRs has been similar. Most people complain about comps/brakes on 16"/14.5" barrels, but most wouldn't think twice about grabbing a 10.5" entry gun for SD/HD. I've found that 10.5"/11.5" SBR's with A2's are just as brutal (and usually more so) than 16" guns even with Miculek comps.

    My buddy has a couple of older Griffin cans, a 22 and one of their first gen QD .556 cans. I think they're excellent, certainly rival much, much more expensive products out there.

    Got the Griffin NT4 comp in the mail today. Ordered late Thursday night, shipped Friday and was in my mailbox on Monday. Very fast turn-around on the order. It seems to be a very solid product in terms of fit and finish. I'll get some pics up and share my thoughts on performance when I get a chance. So far so good.
