Good morning all. I haven't posted here in Rifle Country before, since I don't own a rifle. But,.....am seriously considering getting an AR15, a Bushmaster Carbon 15 model with the 14.5" barrel, which has the Izzy muzzle brake on it. I've done quite a bit of reading over the last week or so and have a question for any of you familar with this (or similar) model.
I've read a lot of comments that this configuration is very loud. So loud that it hurts your ears even with ear protection. And also so loud that others on the range won't like it. Is this accurate? I really like the feel and weight of the gun; have shot only one other AR and it was a 16" with nothing on the muzzle. It seemed fine to me. So how would the 14.5" with muzzle brake compare, really?
Thanks.
