The 'fluted' muzzle thinggy is a sort of blast deflector that slip[s over the front and clamped by a ring. Copied from the Blindicide. It was meant to deflect the blast from the emerging missile backwards into the barrel. But you still 'felt the heat and got a bit of the blast.

Gil......, are CG now SAAB-BOFORS? I was on a laser target indicator trial with them. My link man could be useful
