Designed with short barrels in mind, the 1/2x28 steel SAINT Victor Muzzle Blast Diverter for .223/5.56, directs sound, concussion and debris forward toward the target — instead of fellow shooters. It is robustly constructed and features seven forward-facing ports as well as lightening flutes around its exterior. It minimizes blast and recoil for the shooter and helps ensure a more pleasant shooting experience.
