Dual purpose, then. Shooting and weeding/gardening.
“Forked flash suppressor.

Exactly!
The POS M16 that replaced my M14 had a forked suppressor.
I used to put 3 or 4 wraps of black tape around the end so that it wouldn’t snag on vines and weeds.
Relating to the picture, does anybody know why scopes today all go with small objective lenses? If the objective grabs light, and a bigger objective will give better images in low light, why does it seem like every tactical scope is a 30mm or smaller objective. Is the quality of glass such that exit pupil is no longer relevant? Does it reduce the forward signature of a lit reticle? I assume there is a reason, but I have never heard it said.
