The SilencerCo AC590 ASR Flash Hider delivers superior muzzle flash reduction while serving as a quick-detach mount for ASR-compatible suppressors. This precision-machined flash hider eliminates the bright signature that compromises shooter position during low-light operations.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard A2-style flash hiders, the AC590 features SilencerCo's proprietary ASR (Active Spring Retention) mounting system that creates a secure, repeatable connection with ASR suppressors. The advanced tooth design breaks up burning gases more effectively than traditional three-prong designs. Internal spring mechanisms ensure consistent lockup with zero point-of-impact shift when transitioning between suppressed and unsuppressed configurations.
Key Features
- ASR quick-detach compatibility for instant suppressor mounting
- Precision 5/8"-24 TPI threading for .30 caliber rifles
- Heat-treated 4140 steel construction with black nitride finish
- Advanced tooth geometry for maximum flash suppression
- Internal spring retention system prevents suppressor walkoff
- Compatible with .308 Winchester, .300 Blackout, and similar cartridges
- Zero point-of-impact shift when adding or removing suppressors
Field testing demonstrates consistent flash reduction across multiple cartridge types, from .300 Blackout subsonic loads to full-power .308 Winchester ammunition. The hardened steel construction withstands rapid-fire schedules without degradation. Hunters appreciate the reduced muzzle signature that prevents game from pinpointing shooter location. Competition shooters benefit from maintained sight picture during rapid strings of fire.
