The Comp Craze

This video, presented by AT3 Tactical, breaks down the physics behind different AR-15 muzzle devices. It explains how flash hiders, muzzle brakes, compensators, hybrid devices, and linear compensators manage propellant gases to reduce muzzle flash, recoil, and muzzle rise, offering a guide to selecting the right device for specific shooting needs.

This video demonstrates the significant impact of a suppressor on a Rossi 45-70 lever-action rifle. The presenter highlights how the suppressor effectively tames recoil and reduces noise, making the shooting experience more manageable, especially when comparing subsonic and supersonic ammunition.

This video showcases the Heckler & Koch SP5K, highlighting its receiver markings and a Holosun optic. The demonstration focuses on effective recoil mitigation when using a suppressor during live fire at an indoor range. The shooter exhibits competent handling and achieves consistent shot placement on target, indicating an experienced level of proficiency.

This video demonstrates the performance of the Strategic Sciences MFMD suppressor on an AR-15 platform firing 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition. The presenter, experienced with NFA items and advanced shooting techniques, showcases minimal recoil and tight groupings during full-auto fire, highlighting the suppressor's effectiveness in suppression and recoil mitigation.

This entry details the Strategic Sciences Multifunction Muzzle Device, presented at SHOT Show 2024 by CF Clips. The device is a hybrid attachment designed to simultaneously control muzzle flash, recoil, and sound, offering the benefits of a flash hider, suppressor, and compensator in one unit. This innovation addresses the historical need for shooters to choose between these distinct functions.

This video from SHOT Show 2026 introduces the Strategic Sciences MFMD, a 3-in-1 muzzle device functioning as a flash hider, suppressor, and compensator. It highlights its 3D-printed Inconel construction, flow-through technology with minimal back pressure, and modular suppressor extensions (SD/SDX). The MFMD is compatible with various platforms and calibers up to .50 cal, offering significant recoil mitigation and flash reduction.

This video demonstrates a critical malfunction where the magazine drops during recoil, a common issue in competitive shooting. Ben Stoeger, a professional competitive shooter, highlights the importance of recognizing and addressing such failures. The guide provides steps to troubleshoot this specific problem, emphasizing safety and proper firearm handling.

This video demonstrates a critical safety incident: an uncommanded discharge of a Sig Sauer P320 during the re-holstering process. Expert analysis from Ben Stoeger highlights the visual evidence of the discharge originating from the holster, emphasizing the importance of constant vigilance and proper technique even when the firearm is supposedly "safe" in its holster. The incident underscores the need for thorough firearm inspection and immediate post-incident assessment.

Ben Stoeger, a professional shooting instructor, explains common misconceptions about red dot sights. He emphasizes that true proficiency comes from focusing on the target, not the dot itself. The guide details training methods, like occluding the optic, to develop this crucial skill, comparing it to the lifelong refinement needed for trigger control.

This comprehensive dry fire program, led by World Champion shooter Ben Stoeger, focuses on refining fundamental handgun skills. It includes a structured warm-up, detailed drills for draw stroke mechanics, efficient reloads (including strong and weak hand only), and positional shooting from kneeling. The program emphasizes precision and control, progressing to dynamic movements and transitions essential for competitive shooting.
