The Strike Industries Mass Driver Compensator (MDC) represents a quantum leap in compensator design. The Mass Driver name is inspired by the idea of theoretical mass driver engines in space travel. By ejecting mass, an equal and opposite reaction is generated propelling the space vehicle forward. 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. Includes: x1 Comp main body, x1 Recoil spring, x1 Guide rod, x1 Guide rod fitment washer, x1 Guide rod head, x1 Internal spring, x1 Guide rod plug (GEN4 only), x1 Warning card.
- Strike Industries Mass Driver Compensator (MDC) is described as a major advancement in compensator design
- "Mass Driver" is inspired by theoretical space mass driver engines (eject mass to create an equal and opposite reaction for forward propulsion)
- The MDC is driven by the hot gases expelled through the barrel after the round is discharged
- It functions as a counterbalance system to attenuate (reduce) mechanical recoil
- Barrel-mounted compensators can add reciprocating mass and increase moment of inertia
- Increased reciprocating mass/moment of inertia can negatively affect reliable cycling in recoil-operated handguns
- The MDC separates from the operating components after ignition to allow close to stock cyclic speeds
- Separating from operating components also reduces reciprocating mass
- The MDC compensator has a widened bore to reduce baffle strikes and keyholing rounds
- It includes a 2.5 mm relief cut at the top of the rear to reduce lipping and damage to the pistol slide face
