Buy recommendations Cheaper alternatives to Surefire Warden

I’m looking for a blast diffuser similar dimensions/ style as the Warden. Was wondering if anyone knew something similar that doesn’t cost as much. Not sure what our options are up here. thanks

Warden is semi unique as it integrates over another muzzle device. TNA (True North Arms) made a beauty 3 chamber brake with detachable muzzle shroud that I picked up in the "before times." I'm not sure if they still make them. If you're not too picky and just looking for a muzzle device to direct the blast forward I can also vouch for the quality of S&J (Canadian company) linear compensators. TNA and RDSC would be where I'd start my search for something like this.

I was looking at the direct thread Warden. A lot of other companies seem to over qd blast shields, but I’m not looking to drop $400+ for a system like that. 

I’ve looked at the S&J linear comps but the diameter seems to be substantially smaller that a Warden. Like I think sub 1 inch vs 1.5. I want to go for the thick choadie look

I see now that you're intending to put this on a 22LR, that's an important detail. 22LR is a filthy round and managed to fully obstruct the huge first port in my TNA brake. It's a pita and super toxic to remove too. I would not recommend the S&J, or anything with smaller ports for a 22, look into wide open flash cans if all you want is the short & thicc aesthetic.

Ah I see, yeah I was kinda wondering about that. Thanks for the heads up!
