Most effective flash suppressor for 7.62x39mm?

I've seen various web pages that had tests of flash suppressors for 5.56mm rifles, but are there tests out there or anything else to show whether any of the flash suppressors out there for 7.62x39mm rifles is better or worse than any other?
I'm considering an AK in 7.62x39mm as a general purpose self-defense/home-defense firearm, and possibly for other defensive applications. I know that 7.62x39mm rifles without muzzle devices make truly enormous and bright fireballs, especially with the inexpensive Russian steelcase ammo that most people who rely on this caliber tend to stockpile. So I'm looking to reduce the muzzle signature. I'm looking for three criteria:
1, absolute muzzle flash reduction
2, minimum overall length and bulk
3, if possible I prefer a closed-end design over pronged designs
In return, here's a close-up of the flash suppressor Ruger is currently putting on several of their rifles.
What does /k/ suggest? Thanks.
