Flash suppressing and recoil compensating muzzle device

A firearm comprising:

• a receiver and a barrel attached to the receiver with a bullet having a travel direction from the receiver to the barrel along a bore axis of the barrel, the barrel defining a terminal end;
• a flash suppressing muzzle device at the terminal end of the barrel of the firearm, the device comprising:
• a body having a proximal mounting portion and at least three distinct prongs extending from the proximal mounting portion in a cantilever configuration, the proximal mounting portion and the at least three distinct prongs having a through hole through which the bullet travels in a direction from the proximal mounting portion to the at least three distinct prongs, the through hole defining a central axis, the at least three prongs circumferentially disposed about the central axis, at least three distinct voids, each void defined between two immediately adjacent distinct prongs and having a longitudinally narrowing configuration in a direction from the proximal mounting portion to the at least three distinct prongs from mitigating visible illumination upon firing of a cartridge to propel the bullet through the barrel of the firearm and the through hole of the flash suppressing muzzle device;
• the proximal mounting portion attachable to the device to the terminal end of the barrel of the firearm with the at least three distinct prongs extending in front of the barrel of the firearm.
