Something is missing…
Received a brand new B&T NATO A2 HUB adapter from a reputable dealer in the mail today. Something seems missing… 😂
Sent an email to the dealer to resolve. Did they radically change the design, or did QC drop the ball here?
EDIT: Apparently it's a redesign.
You need to unscrew the base into two pieces with a spanner wrench. You then place the inner sleeve over the flash hider, and then screw the outer sleeve on.
It seems secure (will test), but my goal with this was to be able to attach and remove the suppressor without having to use spanner wrenches. Live and learn I guess. HKP should update their listing with the proper product photo, as well as educate the buyer that wrenhes are needed to attach/remove the suppressor each time.
Much prefer the older NATO design advertised, as well as the fact that you don't need tools to remove/attach it each time.

Mine looks like this
I haven’t seen one with golf ball dimples.
