- Instead of wasting internal volume and adding unnecessary weight with a chunk of threaded steel up front (read: Muzzle Device), the TSWIF integrates the exterior tube of the silencer - a necessary component - into the muzzle device itself.
- This in turn frees the internals of the TSWIF to do what it does best: suppress.
- Recommendation: Optimized 5.56mm Carbine
- Mount: 1/2x28 Lil Bomb Blast Diverter (Included)
