The Radian Weapons AFTERBURNER + RAMJET (brand part no. R0845) pairs Radian’s RAMJET fluted 9mm barrel with its AFTERBURNER micro compensator for the Glock 48, finished in a distinctive bronze, sold as a single drop-in combo that replaces the factory barrel and adds a compensator in one unit. The RAMJET barrel is match-grade, built for accuracy and reliability, and includes a gas-sealing chamber so pressure stays consistent shot to shot. A loaded chamber indicator lets a shooter visually confirm a round is chambered without racking the slide. Radian’s AFTERBURNER compensator uses the company’s INTRA-LOK mounting system, which relies on a taper-lock principle: a tapered locking pin interfaces with an angled V-groove on the underside of the barrel to perfectly time and lock the compensator onto the muzzle. Angled front faces on the AFTERBURNER aid holstering by helping the compensator ride smoothly into a holster mouth instead of catching. This bronze-finished combo is built for Glock 48 owners who want reduced muzzle rise on their slim-profile carry pistol.
