    Well . . . I did!

    Since I was by myself at the range I had to lay the rifle on the table on its left side and pointing downrange with the butt of the stock resting against my belly I pulled the trigger videoing the result. This picture was pulled from the video.

    This was taken around 1900 with sundown between 1845-1850. It was darker than what the picture would lead you believe. That's why the fireball is so visible.

    After seeing the video I had my doubts about the FOSSA.

    Two or three days later I returned with the FOSSA 556 installed. Repeated the same scenario at about the same time and I swear the fireball was gone!

    This frame was pulled from the video at the moment it fired . . . no fireballl!

    I'm impressed!

    There is supposed to be some compensation since the device is timed but shouldering the rifle I could tell no difference.

    At $100-$109 it's expensive but I'm happy!

    I wanted to use the FOSSA. But I was on a backorder for several months and the only thing the distributor could tell me about a timetable was “that’s determined by the manufacturer”, or something to that effect. This was last year before COVID supply issues. I cancelled my order. It seems like the FOSSA is vaporware now.

    What muzzle device is this? Is that an A2 installed sideways?

    Yes that's an A2.
    If you read the post he states the weapon in on it's left side.

    Looks like a BCM Gunfighter comp to me. Definitely not an A2.

    Upon closer look I think you're right.

    Sorry for the delay getting back. This was the original BCM Compensator Mod 0 that came with the rifle.
