Does anyone know of a kill flash / ARD that will fit the M21?

All the M21's I've purchased over the past few years came w/an ARD/killflash.

This. They all come with one. It screws into place.

Going to guess you got yours used and the previous owner didn't include it. You may be able to contact Meprolight and see if they'll sell you another one. I don't know of any places off the top of my head that sell just the killflash.

Previous owner said he has three of them and none came with the kill flash, it's not like he has anything to gain by keeping them - it's a not a well sought after sight.

Other users have said some came with them while others didn't.

I bought mine several years back when they didn't have a killflash available (at least in the US), so yeah, the older ones didn't have it, though they do still have the threads.

It was probably ~2014-15 that Meprolight started including the ARD with them.  I bought one in mid 2015 and it came with one btw.  They have (or are, since it's been a while since I checked) introducing an extra screw in polarized filter to work better in different lighting conditions as well.

Yes- my first 3 did not have one. But later, as stated above, they started including them. The last 3 I have owned came with them. That being said, I never use it.

They did sell them separately a long time ago. I'll bet you can buy one

I just got my Mepro M21 today and it did not include an ARD.  Just the sight, a cover, cleaning cloth, and brush/air bottle combo.

Not trying to hijack the thread....

But how are these sights performance wise? Hold up to abuse well? Bet your life on one? (Been considering one.)

I've owned mine for several years now. I have the bullseye reticle and for me at least, it works great for quick shots. Easily faster than my ACOG or RMR. 
- Durability - It's been bumped, dropped, gotten gun cleaning solvents on it, etc and it still looks new. I haven't tried smacking it with a hammer or anything intentionally destructive though.
- Complaints - When in a dark area and looking out at something very bright, the reticle will wash out. No issues with it outdoors though.

This may be just what I'm looking for.  Astigmatism.

It's a bastard, ain't it.  I've got to say I really liked the M21 I had.  I'll get another when I'm able, and it showed up without issues against my glasses/astigmatism.
