Griffen taper mount muzzle devices

I run all Griffin taper mounts. The type of muzzle device only matters if you are shooting unsupressed.

If you are going back and forth between suppressed and not, just pick the one you like best.

Once the can is on it will not matter.

(FYI I can't remember the last time I shot any rifle without a suppressor)
Flash hiders and forward compensators will add accelerated wear to the suppressor baffle stack.

But with a warrantied can, I guess it probably doesn't matter. Cheaper to replace a brake than a baffle though 🤷‍♂️

Right or left ?

You need to use heat tempilaq to figure that out correctly.
Yes, this can help relieve any concern about heat traveling down the body by putting a line of this from the neck to the web. But, 400°C/750°F still isn't going to do much of anything to the body unless it's at that temperature for something like 30 seconds. :eek: I doubt the body ever gets to that temperature for much more than a second when a neck glows (say, 1200°F) for but a second or a fraction of a second. :rolleyes:

Griffen taper mount muzzle devices

Hey guys nearing completion on my AR-10 DMRish build. For fun, for LR, for end of the world zombie scenarios, etc.

I have a Griffin suppressor so I'd be looking at a Griffin taper mount muzzle device.

My instinct wants to put their three-prong flash hider on it because it looks so damn cool, My gut says to put their paladin dual Port muzzle brake on it because it would probably help me spot my own shots the best and the suppressor could handle taming the flash, and my brain says I should probably get the best of both worlds and put on their ugly flash comp.

Of course they have a bunch of others as well. What would you guys recommend for being the best muzzle device for this build?

Staying in the scope and spotting my own shots would be a huge priority, as little muzzle flash as possible would be a secondary.

Thanks guys
I use a Paladin 2 port on my 300wm, a single port on my ar10, and the short and long flash hiders on various 5.56. Wife's rig has the flashcomp (hammer-comp with tips). That one is neat, but its long AF inside the can. Almost .25 longer inside IIRC.

Good system though, I've been really happy

Accessories Surefire M951 and 6P

Up for grabs are two of my Surefire lights. These would be ideal for the GWOT clone crowd.

Up first is a Surefire M951 Fat Body with the SW01 Slim tail cap. It works and is in used/issued condition. Surefire 6P from the same era in used/issued condition as well. Includes pic mount. I prefer to sell them together to one buyer. $380 shipped for the pair. PayPal friends and family or USPS money order.

Just making sure there is no problem with the heat transferring further down the case .
More details about your annealing process would help. . . like, how long in the flame; what part of the flame touching what part(s) of the case. . . ???

Because cases cool off so fast, quenching them really doesn't change anything and your results, in terms of changes in hardness, is no difference between the two. The quenching just adds more work to your process. . . nothing more. You have to get the neck and shoulder really hot for quite a long time (relatively speaking) to have any problem with the case body getting too soft. Like I'm at 9-10 seconds in the flame where the neck glows red (in a darkened room) for a hair over second and it gives me the hardness, as I measure with my tool, that's equal to my virgin Lapua brass. Here's some .308 cases that I necked up and sized from Sig .277 Fury hybrid cases, which I just fired a couple days ago getting a nice 4.7 SD and ES of 15 from these 10 cartridges (keep in mind that the color you see is not a good indicator as to how much grain structure of the brass is being changed):

How do you note your rifles current zero setting when storing a rifle?

...you only do this until you find yourself a rev off the next stage/day/month and cant hit shit...then you never do it again lol.


is it an ND if you are a rev off and torch one over the berm/target/county???
I would argue yes.
If I remember correctly, torching one over the berm is a match DQ at Texas Precision Matches events. But, it’s been a few years…
