11.5" SBR

I don't know *why* it's the case, or if they meter the same at the shooter's ear, but it is absolutely true that a gun with a shorter barrel will have more "blast" at the shooter than a longer barrel with the same muzzle device. I always attributed this to the muzzle being closer to the shooter and more unburnt powder perhaps igniting at the muzzle, but that was just theory.

Fire a 10.5" gun with a brake and then pick up a 16" gun with the same brake and you will absolutely be able to tell the difference.

I bought a Cav Comp that's about as bad as that. It was cheap and amusing. Some dude was running one in a class, and getting ridiculous flash.... I had to have one since they're like $18.

He ran one in a class??? Lol

Just last night in the low light, I couldnt see SHIT after I fired, you completely lose your target.

Its fun and I wanted to try it out. But I am taking it off.

Its just not practical

Good guy and all... I think just loyal to AZ based gun companies like Ruger and CavArms.

I ould not imagine having to shoot not only in a house in a bad situation, but even in an indoor range.

Im sure it would add insult to injury to a bad experience haha
