The Midwest Industries Flash Hider/Impact Device (brand part no. MI-ARFH1) is a 1/2-28 threaded muzzle device built for 5.56 NATO/.223 Remington rifles. Machined from tool steel and finished in a durable black phosphate coating, it reduces felt recoil and dampens visible muzzle flash, giving shooters a flatter-shooting, faster-recovering rifle for range work, competition, or home defense. It threads onto any standard 1/2-28 muzzle and ships with a new crush washer for a proper, torque-to-spec installation. It’s a direct, no-frills upgrade over a bare A2-style flash hider for shooters chasing quicker follow-up shots.
