Quote HistoryQuoted: Do you mean so that it makes the end a sacrificial blast baffle? No, just no ports on the bottom, like an A2 flash suppressor, to reduce signature in the prone and provide a compensating effect. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Do you mean so that it makes the end a sacrificial blast baffle? I think he means with no bottom port, like an A2 bird cage, to avoid kicking up dust when prone. ETA too slow on the page jump

Quote HistoryQuoted: Who else makes a Q Taper mount pattern muzzle device? ETA - clarifying that what I'm looking for is muzzle devices that accept 25 degree taper on barrel. My biggest hope for the rifle industry is that they catch on and realize that 25 degree is the way of the future. Quit jacking with 90 degree shoulders. Want to still use 90 degree muzzle devices? No problem, a $20 adapter is available to compensate for tapered barrels. https://hansohnbrothers.com/shop/?_sft_product_brand=rearden |

Not currently, we are trying to keep it from needing indexed. Would be pretty simple to just omit one of the ports from the program but then you would need to index it on installation. |

Omit two ports
I bet people buy that Some people are OCD and like timing devices. Freaks

Im very interested in the night howler. Pardon my ignorance, but does the open design act as a sacrificial baffle? Also, I just picked up a 14.7" so it looks like this might be a good option to pin and weld to 16" (based off the similar size of an a2). Any chance you know this to be true?

Yeah I have to recommend rearden over the WPA. Rearden 14x1LH facemounts perfectly on all my AKs because it's much shallower. I can't get the WPA to work at all (both because it's so deep and the included spacer doesn't seem squarely cut) and they don't respond to emails.

Interested to try one out. I've got Rex cans with Rearden Atlas adapters. One request is a 24x1.5 RH mount similar to the Rearden Blyat, as theirs is forever out of stock.

Quote HistoryQuoted: So I guess that all depends on where the manufacturer puts the front sight. On all of our AK builds, we use the standard of 0.625" of threads beyond the front sight. If they used less than that then the spacers will not work. I will get you some longer ones sent out. Did you happen to try both spacers and see how far the flash hider sits from the front sight when tightened? That may give me an idea of how much longer the spacers need to be on your setup.

I need to know where it sits when you add both spacers so we know what length to make the new spacers that we're gonna send you. The spacers are cut on a lathe in a single operation so they should be perfectly square. Here are the images of the measurements that we based the spacer size on. We measured several Ak's here at the shop and added some length for it to sit off the front sight. I need to know the length of your threads in order to send you the correct spacers.

This design does not act like a sacrificial blast baffle. We plan to do a muzzle brake that will though. These are 0.075" longer than an A2 flash hider so if that will work for your setup then so will these. You may need to space either of them off the shoulder some depending on the length of threads on your barrel. |

This requires different size material and design in general. We have had a few requests for these but are still gaging interest to see if we are going to make these or not. Have you considered running a thread adapter to 5/8x24? |

We measured several Ak's here at the shop and added some length for it to sit off the front sight. I need to know the length of your threads in order to send you the correct spacers. Below are the measurements I sent in and posted, they should be fairly accurate. I did take new pictures of what you requested with both spacers. First Picture is with ONE spacer installed, completely bottoms out on FSB  Second picture is BOTH spacers installed  Third picture shows both spacers next to threading  Fourth picture shows MD, spacers, next to threading.  The measurements from my Draco is 15mm, Factory WASR (not parts kit) 14mm , slant back VEPR 15mm. I measured the spacer at 5mm, I attempted to measure the internal threading of the muzzle device and think I came to 20mm. If that is correct then it has 15mm of threading which explains why the devices are hitting the FSP. I'm not an engineer by any means (computer science major) but possibly a 7-8mm spacer could work and be universal? I'm unsure of PSA barrel thread length but that would have to be taken into account as well since they move allot of volume. Could anyone with a PSA rifle measure the length of their threading? Please see my pictures here where I did the measurements with my calipers. https://imgur.com/a/KELYhLp Please note I have a North Carolina education so if I messed up please go easy. |
