LANTAC LAMPREY 5.56 1/2X28 SHORT FH

Description

The Lantac Lamprey is a short flash hider built for .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO rifles, sized and threaded for direct attachment to the Plan-B HUB system. That compatibility is its defining purpose: the Lamprey acts as the host component in Lantac’s modular Plan-B architecture, meaning a suppressor or other Plan-B-compatible accessory can be mounted or removed without tools and without pulling the flash hider itself off the rifle.

As a standalone muzzle device, it earns its keep through a four-tine toothed geometry that breaks up and disperses combustion gases rather than simply venting them. The result is a meaningful reduction in visible flash signature, which matters in any low-light environment where muzzle flash can wash out a sight picture or betray a position. The compact 1.75-inch length keeps the overall profile short, which suits shorter-barreled builds where adding length at the muzzle affects handling.

Construction is AISI 4140 steel hardened to 48–52 Rc, finished in black nitride using the QPQ process. That finish is not cosmetic: QPQ treatment penetrates the steel surface rather than sitting on top of it, which preserves dimensional tolerances while providing genuine corrosion and wear resistance under sustained use. At 2 ounces, it adds negligible weight, and the 1/2×28 thread pitch is the standard for this caliber, so fitment across current .223/5.56 uppers is straightforward.

For builders planning a suppressed or modular setup around Lantac’s Plan-B ecosystem, this flash hider is the logical starting point — functional on its own and purpose-built to accept what comes next.
