The world’s most effective flash eliminator is now available the MK48 General Purpose Machine Gun
(GPMG). Based on the combat-proven Vortex system, the definitive development of the patented Vortex
design now features a 40% increase in structural rigidity. This new version also enables the use of our new
Direct Connect (DC) 7.62mm GPMG sound suppressors. The new MK48 model features our patented 15-
degree helix, guaranteeing a complete propellant burn and negligible flash, unlike the standard issue closedend
“bird cage” unit or competing straight-flute designs. Right hand helical flutes will not loosen under
sustained fire. The aligning of exiting gases helps to improve accuracy.

Note: We have learned that all M80 Ball 7.62 is loaded with gun powder type WC844, and the Tracers are loaded with WC844T (Tracer). The Tracer ammo has no flash retardant and will cause, in some cases, more of a flash or sparking every 5th round.
