AFTERBURNER + RAMJET FOR GLOCK 17 GEN 5 Reviews & Ratings

The Radian® AFTERBURNER™ + RAMJET™ combo provide unprecedented recoil reduction and match grade accuracy in a concealed carry package. The threadless barrel design allows for effortless install/removal for cleaning, while LEGAL FOR SALE IN ALL 50 STATES*.

The AFTERBURNER™ compensator is machined from hardened 17- 4 SS and the RAMJET™ barrel from hardened 416R SS; both are enhanced with a DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating. This combination achieves low friction, high hardness, and high corrosion resistance, making overall durability and erosion from muzzle blast a non-issue.

The INTRA-LOK® mounting system uses the taper lock principle; a tapered locking screw interfaces with an angled V-groove on the underside of the barrel. This perfectly times the compensator as it locks down onto the upper barrel profile on the muzzle end of the barrel.

INTRA-LOK® allows the user to simply slide the compensator over the barrel, insert and tighten the locking screw, making for a simple and repeatable installation process. This system allows the user to easily remove the barrel from the slide for cleaning.

The ability to have in all states and the .05 inch size is the selling point but truly it does what it’s intended to do.downside only effects people who shoot under night vision and possibly people who use optics.
