Greetings, I am looking to pick up a Kel-Tec PLR-16 and want to throw a flash hider on there. I have seen pictures in the past of some fat ones with a Rhino blowing a flame that was pretty cool. Anyone know the story on those?? Any others to check out?? With all my ARs, I just went with whatever the upper had on it when purchased and never did much research on them. Searching for info isn't going well either, so I thought I might get some better results by just asking Thanks |

For flash supressors, the Phantom and Vortex both seem to be top-notch (but I prefer the Phantom because it's cheaper). For barrels longer than 16", I think a standard A2 is fine, and I'm not sure there's much improvement to use something like a Phantom, even with "flashy" ammo like M193. I'm not sure if the Noveske is a flash supressor or a flash hider (or some combination of the two), but I don't like it simply because of its size and price. |
Interesting. using the same xm193 ammo... The 11.5 barrel with standard flash hider has a huge flame... the 14.5 with standard flash hider has almost nothing.... edited to add: next year my LE agency is going to also do a nighttime qualification. I was thinking of changing my flash hider. Now? not so sure... |
I AGREE  I also own PHANTOMS on my 14.5 M4`s I Think the PHANTOM is BETTER better than the VORTEX !! Main reason the Phantom can be Bought with a CLOSED BOTTOM so there will be NO DUST KICK UP Plus the Phantom is ALOT CHEAPER |
