The Knight’s Armament Enhanced Compensator Kit in 1/2×28 (Knight’s Armament part no. 133001, listed by the maker as the Triple Tap Enhanced Compensator) is a 5.56mm muzzle device that doubles as a mounting interface for QDSS suppressors. A protective cap reduces interior wear to the suppressor. Without a suppressor mounted, the compensator reduces felt recoil and muzzle lift. It is built by additive manufacture from Inconel, and the kit adds a shim set, Rocksett and installation instructions for fitting it to your barrel. It is a good match for a rifle that shoots both suppressed and bare.
