    Comps and brakes don't bother me at all. But they bother my neighbor on the line and if he has one it bothers me. For competition, hunting, target shooting..... maybe. For anything else, training, duty, HD, etc...... my $02 is absolutely not. I see them as a hazard. In classes I have gone so far as to request that students having the RRA or Mini-Y comp, put a steel sleeve over them when they are permatached. I made these sleeves just for this situation-- that's how offensive these things are. Better yet when we can get them off especially since we almost always have A1 and A2 flash hiders available for $5.

    I have not experienced every comp out there but every one I have seen, including my own mind you, and most of the more well-known ones, has been anything from an inconvenience to a distraction to a danger. Next season we will not be using the sleeves any more-- it's just gonna be a TD1 thing, before zeroing, if you have a brake/comp, follow me, we're gonna sell you (or loan you for the duration of the class) an A1 or A2. Probably go with all A1's so as not to have to mess with clocking..... enough time is used on zeroing that I don't want to spend extra time getting A2's just right.

    Well, when I think I had things figured out gear wise, I always find out I am wrong.

    So when taking classes/ HD roles, lets say the BCM Comp, is a no-no?

    Every time my buddy and I shoot on the line together he gripes and moans about my Battlecomp. Not a peep when using the BCM. Both are 14.5" barrels.

    Do you know if it will blind you while shooting at night?

    I have only shot with the A2 at night, and I think my flashlight was brighter than the flash from firing.

    I seem to be linking to this video of mine a lot lately.

    Here's that same rifle I mentioned earlier bud at night:

    Thanks, you must shoot very fast.

    Once fire season is over, I will go back to my shooting spot to find out how it effects me at night.

    That being said, I haven't tried the new BCM comp yet, but I've heard nothing but good things about it.

    All of this is subjective and solely based off of the indivual shooters needs and wants. My BCM Comp Mod 0 has improved my own shooting by large amounts. My 14.5 Mid w/BCM Comp is by far the softest shooting AR that I and many of my coworkers/friends have shot. By reducing recoil and muzzle climb, it allows me to get another shot off on target faster than I could with the A2. I have no report as far as flash hiding as the majority of my shooting is done during the day. I did have a buddy complain a bit about the side blast, but it really isnt that bad.
