I have an Arsenal SA M-5R and would like to mount the Bulgarian Type II (Circle 10) bayonet on it. The problem is that I also want a different flash hider mounted as well.

I've looked at some options and realized that the flash hider MUST be smaller in diameter than the bayonet ring to allow the bayonet to be mount all the way back to the front sight base. (That is where the bayonet ring stops)

I've decided to illustrate it as it would take too long to explain.

So, basically, I need to know what flash hiders are out there (14mm thread) which are smaller in diameter than the Bulgi Type II bayonet ring.

Any help would be great, if anyone has the Bulgarian Type II bayonet and can measure the diameter of the inside of the ring it would help a lot.

Thanks in advance

Sorry to just get to this.

AFAIK, the only flash suppressor that will suit your needs is the Russian or Bulgarian birdcage flash suppressor for a 5.45mm RPK-74.

I had one on the SA-M5 no ban that I used to own.

I'm pretty sure the other US made attachments that you're showing are a little too large in diameter.
