Aero Precision
Overview
The Aero Precision AR-15 A2 Birdcage Flash Hider is designed to reduce muzzle flash, making it less visible to the shooter and any potential adversaries during low-light conditions. Constructed from steel with a phosphate finish, this flash hider features a 1/2x28 thread pitch, making it compatible with a variety of barrels. It's commonly found in mid-length gas system builds, particularly those chambered in 5.56 NATO.

Aero Precision A2 birdcage flash hider is a faithful reproduction of the standard A2. Flash reduction is okay but its loud to the shooter. Outdoors its less noticeable. Crush washer indexed cleanly to 12 oclock. Functional basic flash hider.
