As stated, they will direct noise forward. They don't make the rifle quieter, but do make it quieter sounding at your ear. They work well for hunting without ears to give a little less ringing.
You'll need a wrench to remove your existing muzzle brake and most likely will not need a vice, but if they put it on there really tight or with thread locker you may to. You may be able to put a pmag in the magwell and essentially have someone kneel on the rifle and turn the wrench to get the muzzle brake off. A vise is the correct route, but for most moderately torqued muzzle devices you can likely rig it and make it work.
The KVP linear comp doesn't need a crush washer or clocking so you just torque it to the shoulder of the barrel and you're good to go.
Ah no............really ? A reaction bar is the only way to tighten or loosen anything to do with a barrel. A pmag ?
