Charlotte sports an earlier iteration of the three prong flash-hider; so I decided that a comparison study was in order.

Left to right. Standard Birdcage or "A1" flash-hider; Three-Prong, Accu-Tac.
This is just a visual comparison. I have yet to get Dottie out to the range for a shooting impression. Two differences stand out right away between the three-prongs; first is attachment, second is the length. The original is prevented from walking off with a lock-washer. The Wilson is contoured so that muzzle gasses push on it so that even if it does loosen, firing will serve to tighten it back up. We'll see.
For the others though, the three-prong is a better flash hider than the birdcage that replaces it at actually suppressing the flash with mil-spec M193 ammo. There's no visible flash in dusk conditions with the three prong and a little kernel of orange flame contained in the center of the birdcage. There is not much difference, but there is some.
I expect the trend to continue with the 6.8 hider. The Troy Medieval muzzle brake did a pretty good job at flash suppression, but there was some leakage around the slots because, hey; it's a muzzle brake.
