Did some training a bit over a week ago. Hopefully we'll see AEM5's become in stock on a regular basis.

Will you consider expanding into gas blocks like Allegheny or spikes? Maybe even make them adjustable with a set screw? Or a collab with someone so you can monitor QC?
Are there new things on the horizon or just meeting demand within the current lineup? |

That's good to hear Ron! I followed their IG. Hope it works out well!
Bought a second AEM5 a while back from Adco, it's in jail now. Ron is a national treasure and a class act. |

I sent a noveske afghan barrel to adco for the aem treatment. They chopped it to 13”, profiled it and made me a custom collar. I’ve sent a few other things to them over the years and I’ve always been very happy with their work, turn around time and price. This time was no different. I couldn’t be happier with how it all turned out. Haven’t had a chance to shoot it yet unfortunately.
ETA: I know 8.5 turns is the preferred turn #, I’m at 12 with this set up. Any input?

So, are there any good flash hider options for the muzzle device, or is the muzzle brake pretty much it?
I know Otter Creek has FHs, but that's not my first choice. I think bigbore said something about the FHs making the gun less accurate, which I thought was odd, but I'd be interested to know more. |

Smith Enterprises Vortex is used on the Canadian rifles with Ops cans. I don't know Ron's stance on them, but I use them with a AEM4 and AEM5. |

No issues with accuracy. DONT use open tines. Yes they flame cut. My buddys surefire can is BADLY cut from a 4 prong. |

There used to be closed time flash hiders similar to a2 flash hiders floating around but I’d just use the brake. The brake acts as a sacrificial first baffle and prolongs the life of your can. I use brakes, or at least a closed tine flash hider on all my rifles for that reason. To haveblue’s point about open tine hiders, here’s a random picture I found of a Surefire RC used with the 4 prong hider.  Attached File |

You have to cut the barrel to get them to work with the gas blocks.
