The Yankee Hill Machine Phantom 5.56mm compensator combines flash suppression and recoil reduction in one compact design. Perfect for AR-15 sporting and tactical shooters.
The YHM Phantom 556 compensator flash hider is a dual-function muzzle device for standard 5.56 NATO AR-15 rifles. It features the 1/2X28 thread pattern that fits most modern AR barrels seamlessly. This aggressive compensator reduces muzzle rise and manages recoil impulse effectively.
Furthermore, the Phantom suppresses muzzle flash for low-light shooting and training applications. The aggressive porting design delivers maximum performance in rapid-fire sequences. As a result, target reacquisition becomes faster and easier between shots.
