Do I need to install the crush washer with a Flash hider?

It depends on the rifle. There is no one-size-fits-all answer since each rifle has its proprietary flash suppressor and barrel threading.
However, there are a few general tips that can help:
- Consult your rifle’s owner’s manual to find out what type of flash suppressor or muzzle brake your rifle uses, and how to remove it.
- If you’re not sure how to remove the old flash suppressor, consult a gunsmith or watch a video online.
- Purchase a new crush washer for your specific rifle and size of flash suppressor/muzzle brake.
- Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installing the new crush washer and flash suppressor/muzzle brake.
- Once the new flash suppressor/muzzle brake is installed, take your rifle to the range and test it out.
