Rearden Mfg R2 Flash Hider
- The Rearden R2 Flash Hider is a precision-engineered muzzle device designed to significantly reduce muzzle flash on 5.56/.223 platforms.
- Threaded in 1/2x28 TPI, this rugged flash hider is machined from 17-4 PH stainless steel and finished with a proprietary heat-treat process for enhanced strength, wear resistance, and corrosion protection.
- Whether you're running a bare muzzle or suppressing with a Rearden R-series mount (R2S, Atlas, etc.), the R2 delivers reliable performance in a compact and suppressor-ready footprint.
- It acts as a stand-alone flash hider while doubling as a host for Rearden's suppressor mounts. The open-port geometry minimizes flash signature without overdriving gas, making it ideal for tactical, defensive, or nighttime applications. Pair it with Rearden's Atlas or R2S for a bombproof suppressor interface and quick-detach capability that won't walk or loosen under heat or recoil. Built by shooters for shooters, the R2 is hard-use rated and optimized for suppressor setups.
