Just to let you know, there is a backlog in production on them. I ordered a KFH right after the Nov. Market Hall show and I am still waiting. mm |

I never noticed a problem with concussion shooting next to SC's 12" ACC556 or NFA's 10.5" barreled M16. I have to wonder what people buy these for who are not part of a tactical team as I dont see what they get out of them. You still need hearing protection. The blast is not unpleasant to the shooter without it. It will still deafen you indoors in a SD situation. Is it the cool look people are going for?

As stated above - one benefit is it creates more backpressure to increase weapon reliability. 10.5" barrels can benefit from a bit of help, which 11.5" and longer dont have issues with. And I have notice a problem with concussion. 10.5" barrels are loud, and I definitely felt the blast on my face when I shot them. I did find it unpleasant... and didnt even know that these krinks address that until recently.... but I remember commenting on it when I shot a 10.5 with an A2 on it. Neat how some things are objective to the person... huh? That is the nice thing about accesories - to each their own. Much like the M4 barrel profile, sometimes people just want to have the cool new toys..... I am sure that is a factor as well. |

Those were KX3s. I need a KFH, I had inquired JN rifleworks as to which one would work better on a 16" barrel and that is the one he recommended. And, I already had the KFH on order. Did you know that you can tell production date of the KX3s by looking at the pig? All the ones they had were made around 22-23rd Dec 2005. They do direct the concussion/blast/noise away from the shooter, "sound moderation". And they look cool. mm |

I ordered my KFH from PK Firearms right before Christmas and received it about a week ago.
I've also got one on my short-barrelled FAL para. The KFH really moves the muzzle blast forward,making it seem like the weapon is mildly suppressed. Big difference in shooter comfort,IMO. Looks are secondary to me. Clint |

Curious - if the KX3 is the "latest refinement of the KFH concept" why do you need a KFH? |

JN Rifleworks recommended it over the KX3 for a 16" barrel. mm |

That's an understatement if I ever heard one! lol. I switched to a Phantom and now I can shoot without earpro with no discomfort. I am interested in a KFH for a 5.56 pistol build I'm considering. Anyone ever use one on a 7" BBL? Disregard, I forgot we have a AR pistol thread/forum now.
