PWS FRC Compensator 2-Port .223/5.56 1/2x28 Thread Muzzle Device

The PWS FRC (Flash Reducing Compensator) 2-Port delivers effective muzzle rise control and flash suppression for .223/5.56 rifles. This compensator reduces felt recoil while maintaining a low flash signature, making it suitable for both tactical applications and competitive shooting where rapid follow-up shots matter.

What Makes This Different

The FRC design combines traditional compensator ports with flash-hiding technology in a single unit. Unlike standard A2-style flash hiders that only address muzzle flash, or pure compensators that ignore flash signature, this hybrid approach manages both recoil and flash effectively. The two-port configuration directs gases upward and outward to counteract muzzle climb while the internal geometry breaks up burning powder gases.

Key Features

• Dual-port design reduces muzzle rise and felt recoil for faster target reacquisition
• Flash-reducing internal geometry minimizes muzzle signature in low-light conditions
• Standard 1/2x28 threading fits most .223/5.56 barrels without modification
• Steel construction withstands high round counts and temperature extremes
• Compact profile adds minimal length to barrel while maximizing effectiveness
• Black finish resists corrosion and maintains appearance under heavy use
• Compatible with standard crush washers and timing shims for proper installation

Performance testing shows measurable reduction in muzzle climb compared to standard A2 flash hiders, particularly beneficial during rapid-fire sequences. The compensator proves effective in competitive shooting disciplines where split times matter, while the flash reduction capability maintains tactical viability for duty use. The robust steel construction handles extended firing sessions without degradation or loosening.

The PWS FRC compensator addresses the common compromise between flash suppression and recoil control that shooters face with single-purpose muzzle devices. Professional armorers and competitive shooters recognize the practical advantages of this dual-function approach for applications requiring both performance characteristics.
