Since starting in Open, I’ve been experimenting with compensators.
Drilling side holes and changing comps.
And playing around with versions of my carry gun:
I’m starting to get a better understanding of how different comp weights and patterns contribute to recoil feel and sight tracking.
Even with weak 9mm it does make a noticeable difference. It’s subtle but it’s there.
I have a ported barrel P365SAS as well.
One thing that I do notice is that in general I do prefer frame mounted or semi-captured comps.
So going to revisit one of the previous comps I bought.
The Dark Hour standoff comp.
I initially bought it for a 357 Sig G32… but it mounts via the polymer rail and with 357 Sig rapid fire it launched itself off the front after galling the rail notch.
I think it’ll work better with 9mm and won’t have any porpoising like tilting barrel uncaptured comps.
Thinking about this kind of setup for nightstand.
Would probably put the factory MR920 slide back on with the new RMSx and co-witnessed night sights. @GJM @YVK
Best as I can describe it, a good comp makes ammo feel like one power level down.
9 major feels like hot 9mm, hot 9mm feels like gamer ammo and gamer ammo in a micro gun feels like gamer ammo in a larger gun.
Recently I shot my Alien back to back with a comp P365 and the P365 was softer and easier to shoot if you believe that!
