Frequently Asked Questions for the Strike Industries Checkmate Compensator:
1. What thread pitch does the Checkmate require?
It uses 1/2-28 threads, the standard for AR-15 barrels in 5.56 NATO and .223 Remington. Confirm your barrel uses 1/2-28 muzzle threads before ordering.
2. Does a compensator reduce felt recoil?
A compensator primarily reduces muzzle rise by venting gases upward. It provides minimal reduction in felt rearward recoil compared to a dedicated muzzle brake. For both recoil and muzzle-rise reduction, a hybrid compensator/brake would be more effective.
3. Does it require a crush washer?
Yes. The Checkmate must be timed using a crush washer to orient the ports correctly and torqued to spec to prevent it rotating during sustained fire.
4. Is the port design handedness-specific?
Yes. The top port is offset for right-handed shooters.
5. Who makes this compensator?
Strike Industries.
