Surefire's SOCOM Closed Tine A2 Flash Hider combines the classic A2 birdcage silhouette with SOCOM suppressor-ready engineering — giving you the correct period look of a standard-issue M4/M16A4 flash suppressor while retaining full compatibility with Surefire's SOCOM family of suppressors. Introduced in 2023, this flash hider features a closed bottom tine design to prevent muzzle climb and eliminate ground disturbance during prone firing, consistent with MIL-SPEC requirements for standard infantry carbines. Constructed from heat-treated steel with a manganese phosphate finish, it threads onto standard 1/2"–28 muzzle threads and torques to spec with standard armorer's wrench flats. The closed-tine A2 profile is the correct muzzle device for M4A1 clones, M16A4 builds, and any SOF impression where an open-prong flash hider would be out of period. It also makes an ideal starting point for a SOCOM suppressor-hosted build without sacrificing the correct unsuppressed appearance. Order yours today and finish your carbine with the flash hider that U.S. forces trust.
