Our NEW UltraComp slim flash suppressor and recoil compensator has our trademark sleek, modern look and is slimmer than a standard mil-spec A2 — but is much more effective while reducing unnecessary bulk. An A2 flash hider has that traditional look, but is unnecessarily bulky and complicated because it's designed for use with a bayonet and for those clunky blank-firing adapters. Our NEW UltraComp — like the A2 — has five slots and a closed bottom; upon firing the gases exert force against the closed bottom and push the muzzle slightly downward, counteracting and compensating for the natural upward motion of the muzzle under recoil.
• Works with 5.56 NATO up to .338 ARC — and everything in between such as 6mm ARC and 6.5 Grendel — if the barrel is threaded for 5/8-24
• Makes a 14.5″ barrel — when pinned and welded per ATF specifications — a non-SBR (Short Barreled Rifle) of over 16″ in length
• Slim, low-profile diameter allows a .750″ gas block to slide over for installation and removal convenience
• Five-slots are longer than A2 slots, increasing the "slicing" and cooling effect upon the ball of hot gas
• Black nitride finish for all-weather durability
• Fits 5/8-24 muzzle threads
• Length: 2.25″
• Weight: 1.9 oz.
Includes our UltraShims muzzle-device-timing, super-thin washer kit — a $4.95 value!
INSTALLATION NOTES: The ultra sleek look of our muzzle devices can make you wonder where to put your wrench, but the slots serve as wrench flats for any tool — tape-wrapped — that can slip INSIDE the device through the slots in order to apply light torque.
The first step to install your REXUS Ultra muzzle device with your desired orientation, or "timing," is to get the desired thickness of muzzle shim(s). A quick method is to screw on the muzzle device until it bottoms out against the barrel shoulder, and then back it off until the muzzle device is oriented, or "timed," as desired — and then back it off again from roughly 12 o'clock to 11 o'clock, which will account for final tightening after hand tightening. Into the resulting gap between the barrel shoulder and the rear face of the muzzle device, slip an edge of a shim(s) that fill that gap. With this knowledge, proceed to install the muzzle device with shims. There will be a bit of trial and error, but this method is a quick way of getting you close.
To tighten, wrap your wrench jaws or other tool in tape so they don't mar the surface, and then tighten the muzzle device only just snug past hand tightening, roughly the distance from 11 o'clock to 12 o'clock. Don't need to crank on it like you would with a crush washer; this prevents distortion which could affect accuracy.
