Strike Industries Mass Driver Compensator Standard Glock 17 Gen 5 Aluminum Black

The Strike Industries Mass Driver Compensator Standard Glock 19 Gen 5 represents a quantum leap in compensator design. The Mass Driver name is inspired by the idea of theoretical mass driver engines in space travel. The Mass Driver Compensator is driven by the hot gasses expelled through the barrel after the round is discharged, and acts as a counter balance system to attenuate mechanical recoil. Barrel mounted compensators add reciprocating mass and increase the moment of inertia to the operating system, which can have a negative effect on reliable cycling of recoil operated handguns. By separating the compensator from the operating components after ignition, the MDC allows for close to stock cyclic speeds, and reduces reciprocating mass. The compensator of the MDC system has a widened bore to reduce baffle strikes and keyholing rounds along with a 2.5mm relief cut at the top of the rear to reduce “lipping” and damage to the face of the pistol slide. The Strike Industries Mass Driver Compensator Standard is compatible with most GLOCK aftermarket threaded barrels. However Strike Industries recommend use with non-threaded barrels if possible.
