Strike Industries Venom Flash Hider 223/5.56 1/2x28 Black Steel

The Strike Industries VENOMFH223 Venom Flash Hider reduces muzzle flash signature while maintaining excellent recoil control for AR-platform rifles. This flash hider features an aggressive multi-port design that effectively disperses gases and minimizes visible flash during low-light shooting conditions.

What Makes This Different

The Venom Flash Hider incorporates Strike Industries' proprietary port geometry that balances flash suppression with minimal impact shift compared to standard A2 flash hiders. The asymmetrical port configuration directs gases upward and outward, reducing muzzle rise by approximately 15% while maintaining zero shift under 0.5 MOA. CNC-machined from 4140 steel with a nitride finish, this flash hider resists corrosion and maintains dimensional stability through extended firing schedules.

Key Features

• Multi-directional port design reduces flash signature and muzzle rise
• CNC-machined 4140 steel construction with black nitride finish
• Standard 1/2"-28 TPI threading for 223 Rem and 5.56x45mm NATO
• 2.16" overall length with 0.862" maximum diameter
• Compatible with all AR-15 and AR-10 platforms chambered in 223/5.56
• Crush washer included for proper timing and installation
• Low-profile design clears most handguard configurations

Field testing demonstrates consistent flash reduction across various ammunition types, from 55-grain FMJ to 77-grain match loads. The device maintains effectiveness in both carbine-length and rifle-length gas systems without affecting cycling reliability. Law enforcement agencies report improved target acquisition speed during rapid-fire sequences, while competitive shooters appreciate the reduced recoil impulse for faster follow-up shots.
