EVOLVE AddâOns Muzzle brakes, compensators, hybrids and flash hiders
Mission First Tactical, LLC (MFT), a leader in USâmade rifle/carbine accessories, brought its line of muzzle devices called the MFT EVOLVE AddâOns line to SHOT Show: 3âprong ported muzzle brake, 4âprong side port muzzle brake/compensator hybrid, 5âdirection compensator, Tapered 3âport compensator and the 3âprong flash hider.
The 3âProng Ported Muzzle Brake has 4âports on top reducing muzzle blast and the 2âports on the side direct gas horizontally, keeping recoil to a minimum. The front 3âprongs help direct the remaining gas and concussion forward from the shooter. Traditional muzzle brakes direct gas in one way, horizontally, and MFTâs new 3âprong ported muzzle brake takes it in a whole new direction. A 17PH4 stainless steel preâhardened MILâSpec crush washer is included.
MFTâs 5âDirection Compensator disperses gas in five distinct directions. It aids in a wide gas flow to limit recoil and muzzle climb. There are no bottom slots to keep the dust down during low level shooting. The slim profile of the compensator matches the contour of the M4 style AR barrel, making for a clean, sleek transition. A 17PH4 stainless steel preâhardened MILâSpec crush washer is included.
The new hybrid is a 4âProng Side Port Muzzlebrake/Compensator that is designed to be a true hybrid. Gas is forced forward and away from the shooter, as well as being disbursed out of the sides. The first chamber helps direct gas up through the ports on top, which also aids with reducing muzzle climb. The gas exiting out of the sides aids in reducing recoil. The forward 4âprongs direct the concussion and remaining gas forward and away from the shooter, making shooters on your left and right a little happier. A 17PH4 stainless steel preâhardened MILâSpec crush washer is included.
Designed to reduce recoil and muzzle climb, the Tapered 3âPort Compensator features two angled ports on top to direct gas up and backward to aid in muzzle climb and recoil reduction. Three horizontal ports on each side direct the gas out and away, aiding in recoil reduction and adequate gas disbursements. The slim profile makes for a clean transition to the end of the barrel and is a must for custom AR builds.
The final new muzzle device from MFT is the 3âProng Flash Hider. It projects gas in the proper directions to keep the flash footprint to a minimum. It also channels a small amount of gas through a port upward to help diminish muzzle climb. The length and inside texture of the flash hider helps keep the flash signature to a minimum for most 5.56/.223 bullet grain weights providing for a flashâless shooting experience. A 17PH4 stainless steel preâhardened MILâSpec crush washer is included.
