Forward Controls Design Flash Hider .223 Remington/5.56x45mm NATO 1/2x28 Nitride Black 223. At 2.063in long it's tiny compared to the 6315KM (2.4in). Like 6315 on which it's based 6315KM-S has asymmetric ports to optimize muzzle rise compensation without creating obnoxious concussion and noise its 3 and 9 o'clock ports are slightly smaller and shorter the design forces more gas to be vented through the 3 upward facing ports.
