Why Choose the KAK Industry Compensator?

Unlike a standard flash hider, a compensator actively reduces muzzle climb so you can stay on target longer. The KAK compensator is engineered to vent gases upward and sideways, which minimizes rise without dramatically increasing recoil. Whether you’re shooting competitively, training at the range, or building your first AR, this device gives you reliable performance at a price that makes sense.

Installation

The compensator threads directly onto 1/2x28 barrels and can be timed easily with a crush washer or shims (not included). For shooters running 14.5-inch barrels, this device can be permanently attached to achieve a 16-inch legal length, making it a practical option for pin-and-weld builds.

Customer Feedback

Shooters report noticeably less muzzle rise, easier double taps, and consistent accuracy improvements. Many choose the KAK compensator over more expensive options, citing its effectiveness and value.
