Anybody got any ideas about DIY Flash Supressors?
I have a Hunting Rifle... Ghillie suits that resemble the environment (used for paintballing) and a shelter/property that is fully functional w/o outside help... (stream for food many deer HUGE garden.... etc...if u got fire... ur fine XD)
and.. during Situation X i am NOT going to rambo it... because that is how you die... i dont have an aresenal.. but i have a sidearm... and a hunting rifle... with alot of ammunition... i am accurate and have proper training... so thats not an issue...
my issue is... how could i make a DIY Flash Supressor...
if my group of survivors.. (murdered the spelling..) is invaded... and i am ''sniping'' (dont knwo what else to call it) ... i dont want my enemy to kill me because they outnumber me and saw the flash of my rifle :|
(is this in anyway a bad ideA?)
by the way the flash isnt all you need to worry about, sound and heat is also a worry. your best bet would be to stay out of site if you are that greatly out numbered. cover and consealment is your best friend in any combat situation..

Its not a Flash Suppressor, its a Compensator!, Which compensates for the rise of the muzzle. Its side effect, depending on the type, will spread out the hot gases, and any flash you might get.
