You’re basically describing “muzzle brakes and flash suppressors, but with more components to refill/repair”

Separately, using the force of the round (either via a gas tube or via direct rearward motion) to propel the action of the firearm isn’t really an AK47 thing, it’s common to all semi automatic rifles and predates the AK47 by quite a while.




I know.

"propel the action of the firearm isn’t really an AK47 thing, it’s common to all semi automatic rifles and predates the AK47 by quite a while. "

Kalashnikov invented the easiest way to manufacture this behavior... This is the reason its the most heinous of weapons.

I am talking about something different. And thats OK.

I am talking about a specific method of funneling muzzle output to funnel through your suppression...

I am talkingabout a hydro-enahnaced flash press which does a certain thing. Please talk about what that certain thing is.

The most environmentally way to reduce muzzle flash. Cloud of water vapor as an expulsion of the muzzle such that it interacts with the blast easily enough to expel the right amount of water vapor through the expulsion chamber as the expression continues through the valve, (barrel) and its in-flame-ant mitigated by the entrenchment water vapor cloud to expel the munition, but still keep other perams in check?


Maybe relevant to your idea, if I'm understanding it correctly: you can put water in a suppressor to mitigate first round pop.

AK47 isn’t the first rotating bolt gas piston carbine with muzzle devices with booster effect, it’s just an evolution of Sturmgewehr concept and one of the first generation assault rifle so retroactively categorized.

I’ll skip over lubed suppressor concept as I don’t know more than Google tells us :p
