This created an obvious problem as militaries around the world began shifting towards shorter, more maneuverable carbines – while increased muzzle flash also made the shooter a more visible target, the bigger problem was that it significantly impacted the shooter’s vision during night-time engagements, and in extreme cases could even cause temporary blindness. But with a shorter barrel, where there isn’t enough time for the powder to be fully consumed, the result is an almost instantaneous two-stage muzzle flash – the primary flash is caused by super-heated propellant gases trailing behind the bullet, and the secondary flash is caused by residual gases that ignite after being exposed to oxygen in the air, creating the infamous “fireball” that you’ve probably encountered if you’ve ever fired an SBR or shot a firearm without a flash hider (especially at night). When a bullet is fired from a typical long-barreled rifle, most of the propellant is burned before the bullet exits the barrel. While the name is fairly self-explanatory, the science behind flash hiders (also known as flash suppressors) is more complicated than you might think. Have you ever wondered how a flash hider actually works, or what’s inside a suppressor? Confused about the difference between a brake and a compensator? Or maybe you’re just curious which muzzle device will help you shave a second or two off of your competition time – whatever the case may be, you’re in luck, because we’re doing a deep dive on the different types of muzzle devices and exploring the pros and cons of each one. Longer bursts are more common on console and the overall reduction of the flash hider is easier to use than the muzzle break’s first shot recoil reduction on a joystick.Ultimate Guide To Muzzle Devices: Muzzle Brake vs. Plus, I’m on console so it’s a bit different compared to PC. I would rather take the latter as you don’t need to adjust to the gradually increasing recoil of the muzzle break, but a standardised reduced recoil of the flash hider.
The muzzle break only reduces your first shot recoil though, while the flash hider reduces the recoil for every shot.įor semi-auto weapons the muzzle break is the preferred choice as every time you pull the trigger it’s considered as the first shot, hence it functions even better than the flash hider.įor full-auto guns though, the “stacking” of reduced recoil for every shot provide larger benefits compared to the larger yet limited first-shot recoil reduction of the muzzle break.įor me personally, the muzzle break only affects the first few shots of a burst, while the flash hider affects the entire burst.
#FLASH HIDER VS MUZZLE BRAKE R6 FULL#
TLDR: Muzzle brake has a tighter first 6 shots than flash hider and most encounters end in a burst not full auto spray so does that make muzzle brake better than flash hider?
( DISCUSSION IS FOR FULL AUTO GUNS NOT SINGLE ) Most battles usually end in a burst which hits the head ( not more than 6 bullets USUALLY ) does this not mean that the muzzle brake is better than the flash hider as the first 6 shots are tighter? Go to 16:38 in the video linked above and you can see compensator has similar affects but the first few shots are tighter. So after the rework, flash hider was generally accepted to be the best attachment for MOST guns. ( ) <- this video explains it quite well if you are not aware of the rework
