6315KM-S, 5.56mm is a short Key Micro muzzle device for Dead Air Silencers 5.56mm sound suppressors. At 2.063" long, it's tiny compared to the 6315KM (2.4").
Like 6315 on which it's based, 6315KM-S 5.56mm has asymmetric ports to optimize muzzle rise compensation without creating obnoxious concussion and noise, its 3 and 9 o'clock ports are slightly smaller and shorter, the design forces more gas to be vented through the 3 upward facing ports.
6315KM-S is a solid candidate for SBRs, and for users that want their carbines as short as possible. Shortening the flash suppressor/compensator component of the muzzle hasn't unduly impacted its flash suppression and muzzle rise compensator performance. All of the short muzzle devices share nearly identical performance: 6315RF, 6310RF, 6315XE-S 6315KM-S (both 9mm and 223).
Below is a flash suppression comparison of a 6315RF (same flash suppressor design as 6315XE-S) and an A2. For more information, please visit this page in our FAQ section:
