The JK HD Bald Eagle compensator in .45 cal with 5/8×24 threads is a compact, lightweight muzzle device that reduces recoil and provides a QD mounting point for a JK quick attach taper mount suppressor (JK part no. JK-MD-HDBE4524). JK Armament machines it from heat-treated 17-4 stainless steel with a black nitrided coating. Its symmetrical design needs no timing, and it doubles as an initial blast baffle that extends the suppressor’s service life. Wrench flats front and rear make it simple to install and remove. This version suits rifles and carbines threaded 5/8×24.
