KeyMo Hybrid
$139.99

KeyMo Hybrid
KeyMo Flash Hider and FG42 also available.
We are officially licensed and approved by Dead Air Silencers to incorporate their KeyMo mount design with our muzzle device designs. The KeyMo Hybrid is compatible with Dead Air’s KeyMo-equipped silencers.
Features
- In-house heat treated to condition H900 for a through-hardness of 45-47 HRC
- 17-4 stainless steel that is heat treated to condition H900 exhibits 14% higher ultimate tensile strength over hardened 4140 steel
- Every 90º corner is machined with undercut profiles to improve seal and engagement with the suppressor
- 4 jet ports drilled at 51 degrees to direct gas forward and away from the shooter
- 2 jet ports at 12 o’clock, 1 at 4 o’clock and 1 at 8 o’clock
- Recessed jet ports with a flat face to reduce carbon buildup on the device and improve ease of separation with a suppressor
- Forward-directed gas reduces muzzle rise, softens recoil, and pushes all explosive gasses away from the shooter
- Closed-prong design reduces flash and eliminates tuning-fork “ping”
- Shim kit included

Question
Matthew –
Does this brake act as a sacrificial baffle? If not, do you have any plans on making an Omni directional brake that acts as a sacrificial baffle and not require timing?

Blackout Defense –
This brake is not designed to act as a sacrificial baffle. We do have plans on designing a brake as you describe.

Question
Thomas –
Will the 1/2-28 work for a 6mm arc safely without a smith? My understanding is it should be fine as long as there is at least .03″ clearance. Granted that’s if it’s perfectly aligned. I should have roughly .09 clearance.

Blackout Defense –
Best practice is to go to a gunsmith, however, an alignment rod should be used regardless.

John s –
If the bore diameter on the 1/2×28 is .334, can it be used on 30 cal?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Blackout Defense –
We do not recommend our 1/2-28 muzzle device for .30 cal ammunition. Although the bore diameter on our 1/2-28 muzzle device is larger than the diameter of a .30 cal bullet, the safety of this is dependent on the muzzle and barrel bores being absolutely concentric, as guaranteed by a competent gunsmith using an alignment rod. The safer – and our recommended and preferred – approach is instead to select our 5/8-24 muzzle device, which has a larger bore diameter, for that ammunition.

Nate –
Is this for 5.56 or 30 cal?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Blackout Defense –
It is for 5.56 and is threaded to 1/2-28. It is NOT for .30 caliber. We have a .30 caliber rated muzzle device in production that will be threaded to 5/8-24. For more information on calibers and thread pitches, please review the SAAMI technical information Thread Application Guide, available here: https://saami.org/technical-information/firearm-suppressor-thread-and-socket-drawings/

Question
Duer –
Could I use this for a 6mm ARC build? Would a few shims get me to 16″ if i have a 13.7″ barrel and this muzzle?

Duer –
Can I use this for 6 mm ARC or 6.5 Grendel?
(0) (0)
Blackout Defense –
This muzzle device is 1/2-28 thread and will work with 6MM ARC as long as long as it is also threaded to 1/2-28. This muzzle device is NOT compatible with 6.5 Grendel and in any event it should not even thread onto that barrel because 6.5 Grendel should be threaded to 5/28-24.
(1) (0)
Blackout Defense –
The thread is 1/2-28 and the length is 2.82″. The muzzle device is not long enough to qualify a barrel shorter than 13.9″.

Question
Steve –
Would this need to be timed? I am planning to use this as a supressor mount. What would be the best position for both supresses and unsuppressed?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Blackout Defense –
Yes it needs to be timed, but the timing does not differ for suppressed vs unsuppressed.

Would one of either of the uppers you guys make fit an IWI Zion lower?
(0) (0) Watch Unwatch
Blackout Defense –
We cannot test the fitment of our uppers will all third-party receivers, however, our upper receiver is machined to fit any lower receiver that is machined to mil-spec dimensions. If the IWI Zion lower receiver is machined to mil-spec dimensions there should no issues with fitment.

Will this pin and weld on my 13.7” barrel and make it a legal 16”?
(0) (0)
Blackout Defense –
No. Our Keymo hybrid muzzle device is 2.82″ and you must consider thread overlap. We recommend a muzzle device of no less than 2.9″ for a 13.7″ barrel to ensure you meet the 16.0″ length requirement.

James –
On which length of barrels this muzzle device will achieve 16″ overall?
Will this make a 13.9″ barrel a 16″ after pinned?

Yes. Our muzzle device is 2.82″. Even with thread overlap, our 13.9″ barrels will reach/exceed 16.0″ with our KeyMo muzzle device.

Uriel Beneli –
On paper is this a muzzle breaks or flash hider. I have a rifle build that I would like to purchase but given that I live in NJ, it has to be a muzzle break in order for it to be legal. I know there was an option for the dead air keymod muzzle breaks as I had that with my configuration but now I no longer see that option available. Please let me know if this product is legal in nj or is officialy as flash hider on paper and will not suffice.

Blackout Defense –
Please consult your local dealer in New Jersey as well as this guidance by the New Jersey State Police: https://nj.gov/njsp/firearms/firearms-faqs.shtml. Our hybrid KeyMo is both a flash suppressor and a brake. You are welcome to purchase a dedicated brake elsewhere and send it to us for pinning and welding to your rifle.

Blackout Defense –
Correct. It is a closed-prong flash hider with angled gas ports that direct the gas away from the shooter and reduce muzzle rise.
