M14 Pattern Flash Hider
This United Defense flash hider is a replacement muzzle device for M14-pattern rifles, built to the original closed-end, slotted-tube design. It does three jobs at the front of the rifle: it breaks up muzzle flash, carries the front sight on its dovetail, and provides the bayonet lug. It suits owners replacing a worn or damaged part, restoring a rifle to its correct configuration, or completing a build.
Features
- Slotted Flash Suppression — Long slots cut into the tube vent burning propellant gas sideways, which reduces the visible flash at the muzzle.
- Closed-End Muzzle Ring — A solid ring at the front ties the slots together, so the prongs cannot snag on brush or spread apart.
- Integral Front Sight Dovetail — A dovetail, the angled slot a sight blade slides into, is machined across the top of the mounting collar to take an M14-style front sight.
- Bayonet Lug — The lug under the collar accepts an M14-pattern bayonet, as on the original rifle.
- Machined Mounting Collar — The squared collar sits over the barrel and sets the correct alignment of the sight and lug.
- Black Finish — A uniform dark finish covers the part and matches the look of a traditionally finished M14 or M1A.
- Original Pattern Profile — The shape follows the standard M14 flash hider, so the rifle keeps its correct military appearance.
- United Defense Manufacture — It comes from a commercial maker, not surplus stock.
Fit and Installation
This flash hider is made for rifles that use the M14 muzzle arrangement. The front sight blade and mounting hardware are not shown and are not part of this listing. Because the flash hider sets the position of the front sight, confirm alignment after fitting. Have a gunsmith do the installation if you are unsure.

Heck yeah!Slapped this on my Springfield M1A and it fit like a glove, no fitting required. Looks correct and functions great. Put about 200 rds through it last weekend and flash suppresion is noticably better than the bare muzzle. Bayonet lug indexes perfectly with my M6 bayonet too which was the whole reason I bought it.
Drop-in fit, no gunsmithing needed,Bayonet lug works perfectly

Proper M14 flash hiderBeen running M1As for close to 20 years and ive tried a few different muzzle devices over the years. This one fits perfect, no timing issues, and the bayone lug is actually usable unlike some cheap ones ive seen. Threw about 300 rounds of surplus through it at the range last weekend and zero issues. If your running a M1A or M14 build this is the one to get, dont mess around with the cheap stuff.
Solid fit and finish, Bayonet lug actually lines up correctly

Definitely mil-spec quality at a fair price.Bought this to restore my M1A to proper military configuration and it fits perfectly. The blued finish matches my barrel hardware almost exactly, and installation was straightforward with no gunsmithing needed.

Looks and fits like the real dealThis flash hider matches my original M14 perfectly no weird shine or wrong angles. The bayonet lug works great with my M6, and the blued finish blends in with the rest of the gun.

Makes my M1A look completely correct nowI bought a Springfield M1A a few years ago and it always bugged me that it didnt have the proper flash hider and bayonet lug like the original military M14. This fixed that problem immediately. The install was straightforward and once it was on there my rifle went from looking like a commercial sporter to looking like a proper M14. The blued steel finish matches my barrel really well and the machining quality is excellent with clean threads and no burrs. I also mounted my M6 bayonet on the lug and it locked in perfectly which was the moment I knew this was legit mil-spec and not just some aftermarket approximation. First thing everyone says when they see my rifle now is that it looks like the real deal.
Worth every penny of the 35 bucks.
