I have an extra Surefire Warcomp laying around, I was thinking about installing it on my Sig Cross 308 with Proof Barrel and put a Surefire Warden on the end. Any one do this before? Any foreseeable issue?

Please tell me I'm an idiot for even trying this.

Thanks!

It might reduce recoil a bit but I'd sure prefer a suppressor.

I wont put a break on a hunting rifle, or any gun that I am not using as a dedicated range only gun.

The chances of real hearing damage from a single round fired without hearing protection is not a trivial one.

I want my user guns to be able to be used in a way that will not cause me harm and while hearing protection is required for every shot its not always practical in hunting, and nearly never for defensive use. I dont want my gun causing me permanent damage in that scenario.

I would either deal with the recoil or suppress it.

I'd choose a better brake or supressor. All my hunting rifles have brakes or cans. I don't take shots without ear pro if the rifle wears a brake.
Self control isn't that difficult. Don't shoot guns with brakes without ear plugs

Thank you for the suggestion! Duelly noted.

I dont live in a state where suppressors are allowed. Maybe one day
