Details:

If you're using a classic A2 birdcage flash hider on your AR but want to reduce side blast, the Strike Industries A2 Birdcage Blast Shield offers a practical solution. It allows you to retain your current setup while directing concussive forces forward, improving your shooting experience.

Modern Functionality for Classic Setups

Designed explicitly for rifles equipped with the standard A2 birdcage flash hider, this Strike Industries Blast Shield channels the muzzle blast forward. This redirection minimizes side concussion, providing a more comfortable experience for both you and those nearby.

Quick Attach System for On-the-Fly Adjustments

Utilizing a mechanism inspired by Strike's Oppressor series, the Strike Industries Blast Shield can be rapidly attached or detached. This allows you to adapt swiftly to different shooting environments without the need for tools or extensive modifications.

Durable Construction for Reliable Performance

Crafted from robust materials, the Strike A2 Blast Shield is built to withstand regular use. Its design ensures longevity and consistent performance, shot after shot.

Enhance your AR's capabilities with the Strike Industries A2 Blast Shield—bringing modern performance to your classic A2 setup.

Linear Compensator Performance With Your Current Flash Hider

Linear compensators usually have their own proprietary muzzle device that they work with. The Strike Industries Blast Shield takes one of the most common flash hiders on the market and turns it into a compensator host.

This is ideal since the A2 Blast Shield works with the default flash hider most AR-15s come with. Upgrading to something similar to a linear compensator without getting an entirely new muzzle device simplifies the process.
