Buy the SureFire Warden Direct Thread Blast Regulator at BattleHawk Armory! The SureFire Warden Direct Thread Blast Regulator for 5.56 and 7.62 mm weapons is engineered to direct the concussive blast of the fired round forward of the weapon system without venting gas to the side, as seen with standard muzzle brakes. This aids in reducing the overpressure felt by others immediately to the left and/or right of the shooter's firing position. It also limits any dust signature from the weapon when fired from a prone position. The Warden enhances the refined appearance of any weapon with a 1/2-28 threaded barrel, protecting the barrel's exposed threads from damage or fouling in lieu of a flash hider or muzzle brake. Unlike sound suppressors, Wardens are not NFA devices and are available wherever SureFire products are sold, without any of the restrictions associated with suppressors. FEATURES Rugged, heat-treated stainless steel body and durable CerakoteA(R) finish enhance weapon appearance while protecting exposed barrel threads from damage Diffuser design directs concussion muzzle blast forward, mitigating dust signature when the weapon is fired from a position near the ground Not an NFA device, the Warden can be purchased without any of the restrictions associated with suppressors Measures 3.0 inches in length and weighs just 6.1 ounces, minimizing effect on weapon handling characteristics Durable construction for long service life Proudly designed and manufactured in the U.S.A. Non-NFA device directs blast concussion away from areas left and right of shooter's firing position Precision-machined of rugged stainless steel, heat treated and coated with a durable Cerakote finish Direct-thread models available for quick, easy attachment to 1/2-28 or 5/8-24 threaded barrels
