The big difference are the added features, especially the first feature. Features 60% less toxic gas in the operator's face, providing a cleaner and more controlled shooting experience Eliminates explosive flash common with low back pressure from the first round fired to the last Fast-Attach® design allows fast, secure, easy attachment and removal without tools Backward compatible with SureFire SOCOM Fast-Attach® muzzle devices Compact design maintains firearm maneuverability
