ALSO CONVERTS REVOLUTION, RESISTANCE, AND OPTIMUS 9 to accept Taper Mount muzzle devices for rifle applications.

The Taper Mount Minimalist Blast Shield was designed to offer significant concussion reduction for the end user and other team members operating in the immediate vicinity. The Minimalist blast shield can also convert the Optimus silencer to a 7.9" 15.7 ounce mid size taper mount configuration compatible with minimalist taper mount muzzle devices only. In the blast shield configuration, the minimalist brake shield is compatible with all taper mount muzzle devices. COMES STD WITHOUT THREAD PROTECTOR. Thread protector, if desired, must be selected from the drop down option menu.

Often team members in CQB environments experience concussion from muzzle blast that is not only deafeningly loud, but also can cause prolonged headaches that can last for days afterwards. Especially effective on short barrels, the Taper Mount Blast Shield directs concussive force forward . Ultra strong 17-4PH stainless steel provides a robust material to withstand intense use and full auto fire without fear of failure. Flats on the rear of the device allow the use of a large adjustable wrench, strap wrench, or vise for removal if needed.

Melonite QPQ surface treatment provides an extremely hard, durable, and attractive finish.

Griffin Armament has continued to pursue product development that will enhance hearing safety in tactical and shooting sport situations. The Taper Mount Minimalist Blast Shield is a great product for those that would like to reduce the concussion of their muzzle devices.

    Excellent, Almost Perfect

    Griffin is one of few companies that continue to hit the ball out of the park for SO many things. The Mini Blast Shield is one of them. It's insanely tough, and even though measurements show it's not long enough to use on their longer taper devices like the Flash Comp, it only sticks out a couple millimeters. I use it on a Hammer Comp, which is completely concealed. I don't fit it to a suppressor (will later on... thank you government) yet and only use it as a blast shield. Excellent product for that. It gets 4 stars instead of 5 because for some baffling reason... pun intended... it does NOT include the damn thread protector. Capitalism is great but nothing if not sometimes annoying. Regardless - I have it on a PWS 11.85" upper and it does the job just fine while being tougher than the bowl of nails I ate for breakfast with a beautiful finish. I just had to pay an extra 16 bucks or whatever for the thread protector an non-permanent thread locker to keep on until, well, the non-elected government officials decide I can get my can.

    Works great as a blast shield but even better with my Optimus for a more compact mid-length configuration. Highly recommended to purchase the thread protector separately.

    Using with minimalist 3 prong flash hider, Works as designed! Fit and finish great! Yet another great product from GA. If you're looking for a smaller foot print that is easy to remove with your other taper mount minimalist items, this fits the bill perfectly.

    Using this mainly with the 300bo setup when suppressed, then as a blast shield when in suppressed on all of my rifles. Like the short configuration of the Optimus a lot. Sweeeet, does exactly what it’s supposed to do. Thanks again Griffin.

    The product fit well onto my resistance 45 supressor and has a nice finish. I purchased this so I could mount my supressor on my fixed barrel rifle, however this is only one of two components that you need to accomplish the task. The cost seems high for what it is, basicly a 2" long hollow tube with male threads on one end and female threads on the other. I also had to purchase a flash supressor that threads directly to my barrel. The blast sheild then threads between the actual supressor and the flash supressor, like a coupling. So you have to shell out $200 to mount on to a rifle. I don't understand why they couldn't make the blast sheild thread directly onto the barrel. If that was the case and it still sold for around $100 I would rate it 5 stars

    There’s not a whole lot to this part, it works as expected with no issues. It works perfectly with my Optimus suppressor.
