While muzzle device blast shields and flash cans are nothing new in the shooting industry, The Indian Creek Design BFD (Blast Forwarding Device) is unique and unmatched in its ability to allow the user to utilize virtually ANY muzzle device from today’s most popular muzzle brakes to the venerable A2 flash hider, and still be able to re-direct concussive forces that occur downrange.
Enter the ICD BFD.
Designed to fit over any 1″ or smaller outside diameter muzzle device, the BFD takes the exhaust from the muzzle device and directs it downrange after it has done its duty in reducing recoil. While the BFD is in no way a sound suppressor, it also directs the harshest sound waves away from the shooter and the firing line in the same manner as the blast waves are redirected. Various testers and users have found that the need for multiple levels of hearing protection are reduced while using the BFD.
The ICD BFD has been extensively tested in various configurations, with various muzzle devices, and on a myriad of calibers up to and including the 7mm Remington Magnum with excellent results.
The Standard is 3.03″ long. The Extended is 3.85″ long. This device is compatible on any barrel with 1/2 inch threads, including 1/2×28 and 1/2×36.

Easy to install.
This item was easy to install. And it's well built. Made my gun more pleasant to shoot.
USWorks and looks cool
Best feature is that it's not proprietary to one muzzle device. Does it job to mitigate blast forward and it looks cool. If you have multiple firearms and want to swap around. Just buy an extra adaptor. Highly recommend.

CD BFD is 1st class
Simple, flexible design: easy on/off whenever needed. Doesn't require a special muzzle device, use your preferred device. I'm swapping 1 between 2 different rifles w/2 different brakes. Only things I could wish for: matte/flat finish and a slightly smaller diameter. As always, AR15Discounts delivers!
USThere are imitations but this is THE BEST!
We use these BFD as an option at indoor range and around friends. Makes a HUGE difference over our Seekins ATC comp. Ridiculously easy to install. The collar fits nicely over the barrel, apply the crush washer and muzzle device of choice. Then simply thread on the Blast Forward Device and instantly your friends will be thanking you. They offer 5/8 for 300BO as well as a few other collars so there should be no application left unserviced.
USSolely Based on Fit, Finish and Looks
Do people every get tired of reading that AR15discounts has awesome turn around and CS?? Anywho... if you're questioning on getting this thing; save yourself some time and just do it. Awesome fit and in reliable look. I have blast forwarding devices on a couple of my other ARs and they all do just that. I decided to add one to my go to rec rifle along with an extended version of it on the coyote rifle. They fit perfectly and look badass! I typically don't post full pictures of my firearms, but as a consumer, I too like to see how much it will effect the overall look of my firearm. So, for once, ya got full pics; enjoy!
