    Suppressor/Break combo recommendations

    Suppressor/Break combo recommendations
    Anyone had a good play with some of the suppressors with a brake on the end of them? Seen some options are available now (APW, A-etc etc) and was wondering if anyone has had a play enough to compare to comparable suppressors or even brakes in terms of recoil reduction/maintaining sight picture?

    More looking for one for competition use as not a fan of the concussion from brakes from a full days comp shooting but also interested in hunting models as I wouldn’t mind a little more noise if it have a reasonable amount less recoil.

    Cheers

    Been around a few, they still have a felt milder thump, less of a crack whilst being reasonable quiet still. Highly recommend flow through cans if you're going to string 10 rounds through one with a reasonable magnification optics. (You probably still won't see shit)

    I think you are talking about something like the AIMSPORT TRITON 42 OVER BARREL SUPPRESSOR?
    I brought this from Delta Mike as it was explained to me that it was a suppressor with a built in muzzle break. Now I am no engineer but there is an internal structure which looks like a muzzle break, nothing like the DPT I have on another rifle. I enjoy shooting with it but because it is on a shortened 6.5 CR which is a milder calibre anyway I probably don’t get the benefit that a larger calibre would get.
    It seems to machined to a very high standard and overall a quality pice of equipment

    The US military has developed one and has a patent on it, which is likely why we dont see them

    i made this up for another time , long ago when there were Semi,s 300 Blackout
    it was because the smoke from subsonic ammo was that bad that you couldnt see the target
    Very much like Black Powder shooting hahaa
