After doing a search I've read a few threads on the Noveske FH, but I still haven't found a good description outlining what it does.
I realize that a FH reduces flash of course, but what does this one do differently than other models? Does it reduce flash while acting as a compensator as well? What is it's raison d'etre? Denny, could you provide some technical insight-or point me in the right direction to find some? Thank you Sir! |

man thats cool looking!
how much would just the upper cost? bbl. upper and krink |

It redirects the sound forward. All the gas that comes out is in a nice neat line going straight forward. Greatly re-directs the sound signature. Basially makes a 10.5" sound subjectivly like a M4. Thats the main benefit. Eliminating concussion and flash. Particulary useful on short guns for entry and vehicle type work.

The Noveske units main function is to direct muzzle blast away from the shooter and his team members. All center fire shorties have a mean back blast that really concusses you when firing, especially on full auto and even semi in enclosed enviornments. The Noveske unit all but eliminates the beating you take with shorties. If you have not personally experienced it you cannot appreciate how distracting it is. For civvies with shorties, especially those who do not live in suppressor friendly states or who don't want to spend the $$$$$ for a can these are most definately the answer. Flash suppression is fair, better than an A2 IMHO but it is not a Vortex or a Phantom, but pretty good, but that is not its primary function. This is not a silencer and has been ruled by BATF to be a flash hider. It simply directs the muzzle blast down range. These will be going on all my shorties are not suppressed. John Noveske basically improved the AK74SU unit and this one is top quality and made in the USA. The cone inside is stainless steel and the unit can be disassembled in a minute or less for cleaning.

Viper and Denny, thank you
Denny, I'm trying to tabulate the damage that Mrs CJan would inflict on me if I came home with a custom 'Denny SBRed upper' If I can justify the pain on the home front I'd love to pick your brain about one. |
|
Denny,
Nice work! (as usual) Would the Noveske FH worked if it was perm installed to a 14.5, for a 16"+ OAL ?? |
|
What would you compare this Noveske flash hider to? A2, vortex, phantom?
|
|
Paul Oh yeah, more than enough. In fact you will cut some off a 14.5 if you want 16.25 LOA. With a 14.5 you will preserve the barrel markings. This customer wanted a finished legal length of 16" and of course we alway err on the side of caution and go to 16.25 in case BATFE has a short measuring stick If any of you guys plan this type of mod remember this sucker comes apart for cleaning and you loose approx. 1/8" or .125" when you take it apart. Be sure to figure your length with the Noveske KFH broken down for cleaning as BATFE will only measure the whole of the solid body. Denny |

Pretty much between the two. Flash is very, very ammo dependent. Some ammo is very flashy and some is not. Usually .mil ammo has a very low flash due to .mil requirements. If you are looking for the very lowest flash signature try different brands of ammo and you may want to check the ammo oracle on this site. Denny |

Here are some threads from 10-8 Forums regarding the performance of the Noveske KFH (Krinkov Flash Hider) and the hows and whys of what it does.

Denny,
That is sweet. I got the info and will be doing something very close down the road. |
|
Mongo Be sure to post some pics. You always have great ideas and execution. Denny |
|
|
what he said.... ???? |
|
|
They will be $125 shipped. I have them coming in next week and will add them to the site when they arrive. I don't like to offer what is not available yet. Denny |
|
|
Could someone post pics of the disassembled Krink on a barrel? Can you get the FF tube on/off with a Krink welded on? |
|
|
No way to get a FF off once the KFH is pinned and welded on, of course that is true with any other Flash hider too. Denny |

The darkside will consume you all.. Muwahahahaha
Man this is great.. It's about time to se AK parts used on ARs.. Denny.. Is that a Bulgarian unit, or one of the repos? |
|
I love ordering from Denny as whatever I order shows up a few days later (very few). No B.S. When he says he has it in stock it really is! I know this is a bit off topic but I just can't resist a plug for a dealer who makes me happy |

If that FH/brake is cool,........you all are totally AR-13 brain washed.
|
|
|
|
|
what the hell have you been smoking? |
|
|
John Noveske of Noveske Rifleworks makes these and the construction is much better than the imported units. Stainless cone etc. Denny |
|
|

|
|
Ok damn it now I'm confused. I thought that thing was a brake and not a flash suppressor. Which is it?

Noveske 10.5" barrels are now in stock and 50 US flash hiders are shipping this coming week. Denny |

Per John Noveske, you use a 13.65" barrel whn welding on a KFH for a 16.1" OAL.
If you used a regular size FH/FS and a lo-pro gas block you could get a LaRue rail on and off over them without removing either. This is not an option with the KFH. |
|
That is sweet! Did you guys have to tune the gas port at all? It sounds like you cut almost 3" of barrel off.....
|
|
No gas port mods as the KFH add back pressure If you use a Troy or Sampson rail you can remove it with the KFH in place. Denny |
