Tacfire linear compensator

[SuperTrooper]

Finally got my Tacfire Linear compensator installed on my .223 Wylde, wow what a difference. Gone is the chest cavity concussion. I like it so much we're getting another for the WMR.

Linear comps are underrated for exactly that reason. They don’t reduce recoil much but pushing blast forward instead of sideways makes a big difference for shooter comfort and anyone next to you. Good upgrade for range use.

How does one of the compare to a blast can?

I believe they're one, and the same

I got a blast can from a guy over at that other forum for 20 bucks. It’s on my 11.5 pistol so as not to freak out the guy sitting on either side of me at the range.

There was a guy shoot in a 14.5 with a suppressor 2 lanes over from me. It was still loud but not as loud as having a snub nose fired right next to you.

Where do the rear of the six holes around the 'bore' terminate? Do they taper to the inside of the bore of the device?

Yes, I believe so.

Yes, I believe so.

Ok, kinda what I thought.

I might make one of these for the fun of it for my PCC! It's the only gun I have with a threaded barrel!

I'd like to see your end result. I've ordered a 2nd one and will photograph it from the other end, and as much of the innards as I can if you'd like.

Thanks! Yea I'd like to know exactly where those holes terminate.

I just wonder if it’s any quieter or recoil reducing compared to a straight blast can.

I believe they are the same device, but possibly marketed differently.
