Details

The Ferfrans Modular Concussion Reduction Device and Muzzle Brake System won’t add much weight to the end of your rifle as it comes in at a total 10.4 ounces and a length of 2.28 inches. Where this muzzle device really shines is on short barrel rifles (SBR) or AR pistols because the short barrel allows for more gas and unburnt powder to leave the barrel at a faster rate resulting in a louder more concussive force. Indoor ranges only increase this effect and make the CRD an invaluable tool.
The Ferfrans company is a relatively new name in the American firearms industry, however they are making a strong start with the release of their CQB Modular Muzzle Brake System for AR-15 and M4 rifles. They also develop rifle systems and accessories for law enforcement and military in California, such as a rate reducing device for full auto rifles. They are making a name for themselves by moving to the commercial side of the market and producing high quality products.

Two month lifespan
by Dave
After two months of light use (removed the outer device about 10 times and put around 100 rounds through it), the "outer concussion reduction piece" of the system has broken and will not rotate into the locked position. Essentially a very basic brake, with a non useable paperweight that costs $170. When it was operable it worked as advertised.

Customer was responsive to my question, & my order was delivered within a few days. Mounting without a problem.
Exceptional Quality Concussion Reduction Device
by Ed
Ferfrans has been around the block for a while, manufacturing quality firearms for select military and LE groups. I believe the CRD is the first product they've offered for sale to the civilian sector and it does not disappoint. Maintenance is quick and easy. There is a considerable amount of tolerance when attaching the device, so I have not experienced issues with the device getting stuck. There have been several major players who have introduced their own version of a QD blast reduction shield to the market. While those devices do channel the blast forward as advertised, what they don't offer is the ability to essentially convert the brake into a compensator due to it's ported design, which is what separates the CRD from the rest of the pack. Overall, if you're in need of a muzzle device that retains most of the capabilities of a full-on muzzle brake while greatly reducing side blasts to tolerable levels, you'd be hard pressed to find a muzzle device as effective as the CRD.
Fantastic
by Silverback
First let me say PA is by far the best place to shop. Great prices but even if it wasn't, I would still purchase from PA cause of there fast shipping & customer service. The product is everything it says it is. I will warn you though it has some weight to it but for myself that's not an issue at all, actually it helps my shooting.
Works as advertised!

Exceptional service
by Tom
I can't provide a review of the product I purchased because I haven't made it out to the range yet and I have no doubt the product performs based on many reviews. I can say that I am a repeat customer because these folks run their online processing/fulfilment quicker and faster than some of the larger names out there. Very impressed with their response and will definitely continue to be a repeat customer.
Really interesting muzzle brake/flash hider
by David Yearick
I have it mounted on a 7.5 barreled AR and while theres nothing that can really control the inherent flamethrower ability of a short barrel, this does a good job. Looks and feels really sturdy, the outside portion of the brake locks onto the main brake locks strongly with no wobble. Give it a try.
CRD
by Tony Iezza Jr
I put this on my 16" AR-15 and it works amazing, easy to put on easy to clean and does a great job on muzzle control lift and the CRD allows you to make better follow up shots
Quality product

I've not had a chance to shoot with it yet, but it's a quality built item. Shipping through the US postal service took longer than expected.
