Crate ... I'll bite, what do you think the flash hiders purpose is supposed to be on a Jungle Carbine? I'm going to say it was expressly for the purpose of protecting the vision of the shooter ... to curtail blinding by way of the exit flash from the muzzle.

P.S The England stamp was placed there to designate country of origin for Export sale.

It's for the shooters vision, that reply was to Jim's comment.
So a No. 5 taught me that the primary purpose of a flash hider is to hide the flash from the shooter, not from the enemy.
