The Dead Air Blast Shroud with the DA455 Xeno Adapter (Dead Air part no. DA463XN) mounts over a Dead Air muzzle device to divert muzzle blast and flash forward, away from the shooter and anyone nearby. The DA455 is the HUB (R-Series) Xeno adapter, which carries a 1.375-24 thread socket. It is machined from 4140 heat-treated steel and 17-4 stainless and finished in black nitride. The result is a short, light shroud kit for short-barreled rifles and pistol-caliber carbines.
