    NEA muzzle device questions

    I got an NEA complete upper which comes with the brake shown below. I tried googling for info as well as emailing NEA but I haven't been able to find out the following info:

    1) what are the specs on this outer thread? (as you can see my measuring devices at hand are not highly accurate)

    2) what's it for?

    Thanks if anyone can help.

    The outer thread was originally meant for a QD silencer mount, however that mount has been abandoned.

    These were not blued. Every one I have seen was a uniform greyish colour. The discolouration would likely be from use.

    Up until they tweaked the finishing process lately, that's what the treated parts have looked like for the last year. It's not a defect, it's how the treatment process made them look.

    Is that the ARC+ finish? It still would be cool to attach a dummy can to it.

    the finish was light grey like the threads. I did a quick cold blue on it and it discoloured from use. Needs another coat.

    So what I'm gathering is that the big outer threads are for a QD supressor mount that wasn't adopted for use... I still would love to get some technical specs on the thread size and any other details.

    Thanks for the helpful feedback.
