Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main benefit of the AK Nox Timing Device?

The AK Nox Timing Device ensures that muzzle devices on AK platforms are installed not only concentrically but also angularly aligned with the bore, addressing common alignment issues for improved performance and suppressor compatibility.

How is the AK Nox Timing Device installed?

It's installed without thread locker. The device is tightened using a flat-bladed screwdriver in its slots, relying on compression against the barrel for retention. Proper torque and a final bore alignment check are crucial.

What materials is the AK Nox Timing Device made from?

The device is made from hardened stainless steel, a robust material commonly used in muzzle devices, designed to withstand harsh environments, heat, muzzle blast, and corrosive ammunition.

Why is it important to check bore alignment after installing a muzzle device?

Checking bore alignment with a bore alignment rod is critical to prevent baffle strikes when using a suppressor. This ensures the suppressor is properly aligned with the bore, avoiding damage to the suppressor and firearm.
