The BCM A2X Flash Hider reduces muzzle flash signature by up to 95% compared to standard A2 compensators while maintaining the classic profile shooters expect. This enhanced flash suppressor delivers superior flash mitigation for 5.56x45mm NATO and .223 Remington chambered rifles without compromising reliability or accuracy.
What Makes This Different
The A2X incorporates an improved internal baffle design that creates more effective flash suppression than mil-spec A2 flash hiders. The 4150 steel construction provides exceptional durability under rapid-fire conditions, while the black phosphate finish resists corrosion and wear. Unlike standard A2 units, the A2X features optimized port geometry that reduces flash signature without increasing back pressure or affecting cycling.

Field testing demonstrates consistent flash reduction across various ammunition weights from 55-grain to 77-grain projectiles. The A2X maintains zero shift under 0.5 MOA when properly installed and performs reliably in temperatures from -40°F to 140°F. Law enforcement and military users report excellent performance during low-light operations where muzzle flash concealment proves critical for maintaining night vision and tactical advantage.
