I might be wrong, but I think this is a muzzle booster, not a flash hider.

The official U.S. military manual term is “flash hider,” sir.

M1919A6 also got a flash hider that was muzzle booster. First came the booster, then the hider.
I recon they just made it bigger for the M2 and just called it a hider.

I think maybe introduced in 1960s.

Pretty sure the Band of Brothers depiction is anachronistic.
