The Anderson Manufacturing 3-Prong Flash Hider is a classic open-tine muzzle device built for 5.56 NATO/.223 Remington AR-15 rifles, threaded 1/2-28 (Anderson part no. G2-K031-A005-0P). The three-prong design breaks up muzzle flash at the source rather than trapping and venting it through closed baffles, giving it the recognizable silhouette used on the earliest AR-15/M16 rifles. It threads on like any standard muzzle device and installs with a standard AR-platform armorer’s wrench.
