Compensators on Pistols - how much do they work? IDPA Carry optics study

Описание: Compensators on pistols are becoming more and more popular from brands like SIG Sauer, Shadow Systems, Zev Technologies, Bul Armory, Taran Tactical and others releasing pistols from the factory with compensators - but how much do they work? IDPA recently updated their rules to allow factory built compensated pistols - so we study it through that lens.

Some of the guns in the video were T&E guns sent to me for no cost - some I paid for - it has no bearing in the content presented as it tries to be data driven.
