Yes, there are "Faux" flash hiders-with slots not cut all the way through. LRB produces those. Other ones have a steel cylinder silver soldered inside a GI flash hider to seal off the slots. At first glance both styles look real.
In the instance I refered to I had casually PM'd the seller to let him know it was a real FH.Comment

Not necessarily true. A detachable mag is an evil feature, a flash hider is an evil feature. An M1A with a flash hider is a no go, but an SKS (fixed mag) with a flash hider is a go. One evil feature here, only one.Originally posted by CJ5&G23C&R nut.Comment

Negative negative negative.
The detachable magazine is NOT an evil feature.
If "one" evil feature were allowed, then we could have an M1 Garand with an OAL under 30"... but we can't.
The "one evil feature" thing is from New York, I think also the Federal ban.
California does not allow for ANY evil features *IF* the gun also does not have a fixed magazine.
Shotguns are a bit different, as are handguns.- Rich

The only thing that has changed for 2017 is the definition of a detachable magazine.Originally posted by cockedandglockedComment

Frozen in 2015, it is falling out of date and I can no longer edit the content. But much of it is still good!Comment

The draft AW regulations that were withdrawn contained a new and improved definition of a flash hider that would possibly include a lot of muzzle brakes.
Until this is resolved, a thread protector might be a good investment. This definition is why new featureless rifles are being sold with non-porting muzzle devices like thread protectors or HERA barrel caps."Flash suppressor" means. any device attached to the end of the barrel, that is designed, intended, or functions to perceptibly reduce or redirect muzzle flash from the shooter's field of vision. A hybrid device that has either advertised flash suppressing properties or functionally has flash suppressing properties would be deemed a flash suppressor. A device labeled or identified by its manufacturer as a flash hider would be deemed a flash suppressor.
The new flash suppressor definition sure smells a lot like an underground regulation that would warrant some legal action should it remain in the revised regulations coming out in 2018.
