Picked up the Precision Armament EFAB 556 from Optics Planet and couldn’t be happier. Shipping was quick, packaging solid, and the muzzle device itself is awesome — great recoil control with hardly any extra blast. Exactly what I was hoping for, and Optics Planet made the whole process easy. Definitely recommend both the product and the site!

I didnt shoot it yet, so I will ammend this comment when I do. But installation was easy (IWI TAVOR X95) and its no larger than my factory muzzle device. Build is solid and still lite weight. I also rarely give anything 5 stars and this 4/5 is only because I havent shot with it yet so I cant confirm how effective it actually is.

I recently purchased this product (ie) late October 2025K for a specific type of rifle, the IWI X95 Tavor Bullpup chambered in 5.56. In my personal opinion I've realized this Hybrid mix of muzzle break/flash hider is quite unique. My first experience with this rifle was in its original configuration without any upgrades. My second experience with this rifle was with upgrades as follows: The Geissele Super Saber Trigger Pack, the Precision Armament Gas Buster Covers & EFAB Hybrid Muzzle Brake. These combined systems have given my rifle as I describe a new sense of open breath. The entire components as a group are flawlessly working in unison & different from the way its original form factor. (I'm loving every moment with this rifle). Coming from a military background & with extensive use of many weapons this unit is really, really nice. I generally do a lot of research before putting my hard earned finances into anything that in my opinion is expensive. Bare in mind this may not be the type of rifle for your specific use, so do your research on what your needs are for the application & the intended purpose. (God bless America & its freedom that so many have sacrificed for).
Pros:
- price construction quality
- Ergonomics and features
- Reliability and ease of use.
- Design & ruggedness
- Install and spacer capability
Would recommend: Yes

The most expensive muzzle brake on the market, but well worth it. Controls flash and muzzle rise. Great quality and great looking.

I know, a brake on ar15... but shoulder troubles are definitely a thing. I've been beside dudes with brakes before and depending on how stacked the line is they can be rather annoying. This one is different. Reduces recoil and doesn't bother the the guys beside you? That's a win in my book. The only thing I'm not sure about is the flash signature.

EFAB is the best brake and flash hider combo out there. The only one have found that does both tasks well. Does not have a high concussive blast like most brakes.

I can’t say enough good things about this break I put it on my 5.56 rifle build replacing the original A2 birdcage I honestly didn’t expect much but the difference in muzzle rise and felt recoil is mind blowing for such a tiny piece it made the rifle significantly faster and significantly more accurate for repeat shots i would highly recommend this device it also seems to shoot a little quieter or less concussion
Pros:
- Looks good
- Easily installed
- Works as advertised
- Increase accuracy
- reduce flash and recoil
Cons:
- a little heavy for a muzzle device
Would recommend: Yes

If you want to make an already low recoil platform (556) even more enjoyable to shoot with more time on target and NO flash this is the way to go. This hybrid break/flash hider is a must have for any build you want to take to the next level!!! And with optics planet having the best prices around it’s a no brainer to pick this up. 10/10 would recommend! No blast back to the face/shooter & VERY LITTLE sound increase to you and the people around you. The EFAB is as close as you can get to perfect. I wanted the “HYPERTAP” but the severe noise increase and blast/concusion back to the shooters face and other made me chose the EFAB instead . Very happy I made that decision!
Pros:
- Recoil Reduction
- Flash suppression
- Ease of insallation
Would recommend: Yes

I have used many muzzle brakes and flash hiders. This is the best one so far. Being an ex machinist the design, finish and quality is excellent. it is not cheap, but it is worth the price. Great finish for my new build.
