We ran a night shoot with three popular flash hiders against the NEMESIS MICRO suppressor. Same firearm, same ammunition, one position, one camera. No editing.

What we looked at

  • Visible flash on the shot in darkness.
  • How the flash looks on the same firearm with different muzzle devices.
  • How visible the shooter is from the side - position signature.

Results

All three flash hiders produced a visible flash in the dark - exactly what an operator does not want to see from a position at distance. Loud report + visible fire = blown position.

NEMESIS MICRO produced a significantly weaker flash than the three flash hiders in the test - visible to the naked eye on the footage. MICRO is an ultra-compact (350 g, 39.5 mm diameter, 120 mm length) for 5.45 / 5.56 / 9 mm. Weapon-grade steel + phosphate coating, dual-circuit gas venting. Built for CQB, automatic fire, and confined spaces.

Almost complete flash invisibility is a different story - that requires ARCANE with its ZERO gas architecture. MICRO is about something else: footprint, weight, and reliable cycling on short bursts.

Don't take our word for it - watch the video.

NEMESIS MICRO - where weight, size, and reduced flash matter without stepping up to ARCANE.
