PRECISION ARMAMENT M4-72 SEVERE-DUTY COMPENSATOR 22 CALIBER 1/2-28 SS SILVER

Notify on availability

Description:

Enhance your shooting experience with the AR-15 M4-72 Severe-Duty Compensator.

The Precision Armament M4-72 Severe-Duty Compensator is designed specifically for .22 caliber rifles, providing exceptional performance and reliability. This compensator features a large initial expansion chamber that effectively dissipates combustion gases at a lower pressure, directing them to the side and rear through precisely canted vents.

Innovative Design

The innovative reverse venting design significantly reduces recoil and blowback while eliminating muzzle rise, ensuring improved accuracy during rapid fire. Additionally, the closed bottom of the compensator greatly diminishes dust signature, making it an ideal choice for tactical scenarios.

Durable Construction

Machined from high-strength HTSR 416 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance, this compensator is built to withstand the extreme heat generated by automatic fire without eroding. Available in a matte black or in-the-white stainless steel finish, it complements any firearm aesthetic.

Specifications

Thread: 1/2-28 TPI
Overall Length: 2.25" (5.2cm)
Diameter: 0.875" (2.2cm)
Weight: 2.6 oz (73.7g)
Caliber Compatibility: Fits .223 Cal (5.56mm)

Please note: The use of Accu-Washers (sold separately) is required for proper installation.

Great working but loud 04/03/2016

My wife installed the M4-72 stainless steel on her Sig Sauer 516 Patrol rifle. It works as advertised. The matte stainless steel is barely noticeable. The only thing neither one of us liked is the blast hits you in the face and swirls debris under your glasses. The blast was a distraction on the range, I can only imagine firing it during a defensive situation without glasses or ear protection. Like it but will try the P.I. M-11 as a tactical alternative.

recoil reduction at the cost of comfort 15/02/2016

The recoil reduction is great for followup shots.

With an adjustable gas block and low mass bolt carrier I get just a tiny amount of left to right whip.

It will make you AR ungodly loud compared to the already loud A2 flash hider, my ears can ring a little under my muffs.

If you have a spotter they will have a hard time watching shots right next to you do to gas blowing back at them.

If non of these bother you it's hands down the best compensator for 5.56.

Works well. 03/10/2015

Purchased this for a 3 gun build on an 18" barrel with rifle length gas. Used a low mass BCG and JP silent captured spring in the buffer tube.

It works well, but out of my rifle with factory federal xm193 rounds, people have commented that they see flames every now and then.

The blast is directed back at about a 45 degree angle, that is probably why it works so well. The downside to that is I did have my hairs on my hand get scorched, probably when I had my hand on a barricade or too far out front, near the comp.

It is definitely loud. I decided to double plug my ear when shooting this gun, but not if I was shooting my shotgun or handgun.

I purchased the Accu washers from the same company. They should have been included, especially since in the instructions they tell you which one would work on this comp.

4 stars since there was no washers included and you had to purchase some, and also for the blast that is angled a little too sharply for me.
