Introducing the newest Shockwave™ Technologies Flash Forward™ muzzle device–now for any 5.56mm firearm with a ½”-28 threaded muzzle. Its design redirects the expanding gases at the muzzle of your firearm away from you and toward the target. In testing, we have seen the peak decibel reading at the shooter’s ear reduced by an average of 10.1 db**. (As the decibel is logarithmic, this is a very noticeable difference.) However, because the overall sound level isn’t affected—just redirected. It’s classified as a simple “threaded muzzle device.”

This hard-anodized, 6061-T6 aluminum “can” mounts directly to your ½”-28 threaded muzzle. No need for shims or crush washers, though you can still use them if you wish. For a semi-permanent installation, a bit of blue thread-locking compound works well.
