Does a pump action/straight pull .223 rifle need a hybrid muzzle brake/compensator? No. Do I like the look of it? Yes.

Am I aware that the durability of Tommy Enterprises aftermarket parts is in question? Yes. Am I willing to give a Canadian gun parts manufacturer a chance for my business? Also yes.

Sheila's outfit is almost complete. Waiting on a Hogue OverMolded AR stock on backorder and I will probably swap out the bipod for a Magpul or real Harris bipod once my credit card stops smoking.

I've been looking all over the inet and there are NO indications that anyone has done anything to lighten the pull on these Xs. Anything besides 'wear it in' and 'Moly grease' ? Will the trigger group melt down if the blue stuff is removed ?
