AR10 Blast Forward Compensator
Description
Blast Forward Compensator AR10
The Clawgear Blast Forward Compensator (BFC) AR10 was specifically developed for professional use with rifles chambered in .308 / 7.62x51 mm. As a linear compensator, it directs muzzle gases, overpressure, and noise straight forward, significantly reducing the shooter's exposure and improving comfort in confined spaces (CQB), during team operations, or on the firing line alongside others.
Manufactured from high-strength steel and finished with a durable black coating, the BFC offers long service life under demanding operational conditions. Three internal expansion chambers efficiently channel the exhaust gases to reduce recoil and muzzle rise. The closed-body design prevents dust and debris from being kicked up when firing from prone positions or on loose terrain.
The front section features integrated hardened steel breacher spikes, allowing the user to forcibly defeat barriers in CQB scenarios or to use the spikes as a mounting interface with the supplied tool. The compensator is installed using a crush washer, ensuring proper alignment on the barrel thread.
