Lets face it. Some ARs are very loud at the range. Indoors its gets even worse. This isnt necessarily a bad thing sometimes its fun to let it roar but sometimes for your sake or your neighbors you may want to tone it down. Many opt for suppressors. Which are a great option if you have the money. However, there are other devices which do not require the paper work or cost involved.
Muzzle blast control devices are one great option which help mitigate the noise by sending it forward and downrange. They can also help to dissipate the amount of dirt kicked up if shooting from a prone position. Surefire has hit a homerun with the warden!
Surefire Warden Blast Regulator 5.56MM and 7.62MM FDE
The SureFire Warden Blast Regulator directs the concussive blast of the fired round forward of the weapon system without venting gas to the side, as seen with standard muzzle brakes. This aids in reducing the overpressure felt by others immediately to the left and/or right of the shooter’s firing position. It also limits any dust signature from the weapon when fired from a prone position. The Warden Blast Regulator attaches to any SureFire SOCOM 5.56 or 7.62 muzzle device through the same patented SureFire Fast- Attach® system found on SureFire SOCOM Series suppressors. Unlike sound suppressors, this product is not an NFA device and is available wherever SureFire products are sold, without any of the restrictions associated with suppressors..

Surefire SOCOM Flash Hider/Suppressor Adapter (Three Prong) 762NATO 5/8X24 RH
The advanced SureFire SF3P-762-5/8-24 three-prong flash hider, which fits the Armalite AR-10, DPMS LR308, and 7.62 mm rifles with 5/8-24 muzzle threads, features a patent-pending design that greatly reduces muzzle flash—typically greater than 99%—when compared with a plain muzzle. Boasting robust tines built to withstand the rigors of combat, the SF3P-762-5/8-24 also serves as a rock-solid mounting adapter for SureFire SOCOM Series 7.62 mm Fast-Attach® suppressors, the SOCOM762-RC model having recently won the Mk13 .300 Win-Mag sniper rifle contract award with the US Special Operations Command in the most extensive and rigorous suppressor testing ever conducted.
Surefire SOCOM Muzzle Brake/Suppressor Adapter 556NATO 1/2X28
The advanced SureFire SFMB-556-1/2-28 muzzle brake, which fits M4 / M16 weapons and variants with 1/2-28 muzzle threads, greatly reduces both recoil impulse and muzzle rise so that the weapon tracks straight back to keep you on target for faster shot-to-shot recovery. Its patented Impulse Diffusion design minimizes side blast and rear-directed concussion effects. The SFMB-556-1/2-28 also serves as a rock-solid mounting adapter for SureFire SOCOM Series 5.56 mm Fast-Attach® suppressors, the SOCOM556-RC model having placed first in the most extensive and rigorous suppressor testing ever conducted by US Special Operations Command.
