The advanced SureFire 3P Eliminator three-prong flash hider features a patent-pending design that greatly reduces muzzle flash — typically greater than 99% — when compared with a plain muzzle. Boasting robust tines built to withstand the rigors of combat, the 3P Eliminator 556 duplicates key functional design elements of the SureFire SF3P flash hider, but, unlike the latter, serves only as a standalone flash hider and is not suppressor compatible. Precision machined from US mill-certified steel bar stock — including high-precision single-point cut threads for optimum thread interface — the SureFire 3P Eliminator features a durable nitride finish that provides maximum protection in harsh environments and facilitates cleaning even after extreme use.
