SureFire SFCT5561228 Closed-Tine Flash Hider 5.56 NATO 1/2x28

The SureFire SFCT5561228 Closed-Tine Flash Hider eliminates muzzle flash while maintaining superior blast signature reduction for 5.56x45mm NATO chambered rifles. This precision-engineered flash suppressor features SureFire's proven closed-tine design that effectively breaks up burning powder gases without creating the sharp prongs found on traditional birdcage-style flash hiders.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard A2-style flash hiders, the SFCT5561228 utilizes a closed-tine configuration that provides enhanced flash suppression while eliminating snag points during tactical movements. The Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating over stainless steel construction delivers exceptional corrosion resistance and reduces maintenance requirements. SureFire's proprietary tine geometry creates optimal gas dispersion patterns that significantly reduce visible flash signatures compared to uncoated alternatives.

Key Features

• Closed-tine design eliminates sharp edges and snag points during movement
• Black Diamond-Like Carbon coating provides superior corrosion resistance
