Brownells announced they are now carrying the Micor Industries AR-15/M-16 flash suppressor. Manufactured at Micor’s shop in Dacatur, AL, the flash suppressor employs a series of slots that match the twist rate of your barrel (1:7, 1:8, or 1:9 only), which they claim reduce muzzle climb and improve accuracy, in addition to reducing muzzle flash.
The Micor flash suppressor is CNC machined steel with a black Melonite finish. Micor also offers suppressors machined from 6AL4V titanium for extreme conditions.
The Micor flash suppressor is 2″ long, weighs 2.4 ounces (steel version), and includes a crush washer. Micor states the suppressors are made to allow the attachment of a blank firing adapter or a noise suppressor.
There are a variety of flash suppressors on the market, each with their own set of benefits. If you are in the market for a suppressor for your AR build, give the Micor a look to see if it makes sense for your application. The 1:9 twist suppressor is available from Brownells, while the 1:8 and 1:7 must be ordered directly from Micor.
