    Cool Steger SL8 Clamp-On Flash Hider - COMING SOON

    SKU#: 145STEGER. MSRP$199.99.

    COMING SOON.

    Clamp on with 2 screws to H&K SL8 barrels without need of gunsmithing. Made in Germany.

    Our “script” also means quality when it comes to milling...
    ... because good material and the best workmanship ensure you excellent results, for example with our flash hiders:

    The damper is fastened radially using two clamping screws without additionally attaching a barrel thread (no gunsmith necessary) without damaging the barrel. It is CNC machined from high-quality material and burnished. The damper has no influence on the shooting pattern and is designed exclusively for a specific weapon and may not be mounted on other weapons.

    How much does it weigh though? The SL8 is already pretty front heavy, but this is cool nonetheless.

    I would try one. Maybe in combo with the recent G36 conversion announcement

    On second thought, it is pricey.
    Another factor is how it will affect barrel harmonics. The statement says/implies this clamp on device wont affect shooting patterns. I have a hard time believing this.
    Like barrel tuners, it could improve things, but it could make things worse as well.

    Will this stay on, long term? Sorry if I seem skeptical...

    Any guess if this would work on a 308 FNH FNAR?

    Dude, check the caliber diameter and also the diameter of the barrel before you ask those questions.

    $199 is actually a good price but personally I would not put it on a front heavy SL8.

    Thanks Captain Obvious for your mindless assumption.

    Maybe I already checked that the barrel diameter is very close. 0.762" vs 0.788″.
    Then went to the Steger website to see if they list any specs and they don't show anything.

    Hence the entirely reasonable question.
