Cleaning out a 41 compensator

[Tom S.]

It was mentioned to me that if you soak the MB in liquid mercury (dangerous stuff), the lead will simply dissolve in a brief period of time. Personally, I wouldn't touch this suggestion with a ten foot pole. It was given to me by an LGS.

When I was a kid, my dad brought home a small bottle of mercury. I learned that you could rub it on a copper penny and it would make it shine like a dime. I did several of these, using my bare hands of course, and it never had any eflfkjskgh;j jkw hkhdjhahg abmvq0fghah hh eiyv on me.

It's not, especially for a semi-auto. But it looks "macho".

It's too bad that we've lost sight of what these TARGET grade 22 semi auto pistols were designed and intended for that people really think a compensator is some sort of "tacticool" accessory.

Closely read the chart I posted above. The compensators almost all have a slightly negative effect on accuracy, on the order of approx 20-45%, for 10 shot groups @ 50 yds from a machine rest. (Keep in mind that at 50 yds the X ring is about 1.65" and the 10 ring is just over 3 inches. So, even with the compensator, a Master ranked competitor can still fire a clean 100 score")

However, in the context of formal competition, the potential advantage of the quicker recovery during the timed and rapid fire stages brings the advantages of a compensator into play.

Gil did some research to help the serious competitor make his or her own informed decision.

Best Regards,

For the vast majority of us it is of NO value to us in my view. I shoot much better without it but I am glad I have it to go with my gun someday. Hopefully help raise the price a bit when I get shipped to the moon or area.
