This goes across the board for all weapons?

I've played this game for around 280 hours and always ran muzzle brake for everything o.o

You'll generally want a compensator for guns that tend to shoot with high rates of fire. Compensators give the best recoil enhancements when firing fully automatic. While not as great at sustaining semi-automatic fire as the muzzle brake, it can handle tap firing on its own. For weapons that have the advantage of a fast rate of fire, like Twitch's FAMAS and Ash's R4-C, a compensator is your safest bet. You can generally have a pretty easy time with a compensator on any gun, though it isn't the best pick on all of them.

Muzzle brakes are most effective with single fire weapons, either by tapping with an assault rifle, or using a marksman rifle. For anything semi-auto, the muzzle brake is your best bet. They reduce the recoil of the first shot so that your gun's crosshair doesn't "jump" as hard after each shot. Guns like Twitch's 417 or Buck's CAMRS marksman rifles will benefit more from the muzzle brake than the compensator, as your recoil after each shot fired will be significantly more forgiving and consistent than if you were to slap on a compensator.

Keep in mind that these are only general guidelines. The muzzle attachments aren't exactly the most consistent, and in some cases you might prefer full auto with a flash hider or extended barrel rather than a compensator. I know a few people that prefer the flash hider over the compensator on the R4-C, for example.
If you don't want to test for yourself, then follow the recommendations above, as long as you remember that any attachment is better than no attachment at all.

No muzzle attatchment, they make your barrel longer and this puts you at a big disadvantage for peeking enemies since they can see your gun as you peek them.
