You don't need flash suppressor / hider / compensator / muzzle brake on a .223. Unless you are using one on full auto which is unlikely in NZ. Even more so on an a-cat gun.

I can understand a sound suppressor for some areas and situations, but if you're worried about muzzle rise from an a-cat AR-15, you need to spend more time at the gym and less time attaching shit to the end of your rifle.

Then you won't have to lie awake at night worrying about what the cops think of A2 flash hiders.

or if you have a totally fucked shoulder caused by shonky ACC repairs and the muzzle brake reduces the recoil !!!
