1/2x28 38/9mm Compensators

[TheSouthernMarksman]

I’ve been trying to find a new compensator for my Bianchi open gun. It’s got a KKM barrel, 1/2x28 threads and I’m having a heck of a time finding many options. Other than what I have now (ZR Tactical) all I’m seeing is a Tandemkross, and some 2011 comps. Any suggestions?

Probably because it has suppressor threads and not comp threads.

Correct…KKM doesn’t offer a .355 bushing Clark/Para barrel with anything other than 1/2x28, so that’s what I went with. So am I stuck? Or is there anything else?

[Bakerjd]

That I don't know. Maybe contact a builder and see if they can make you a comp?

You could look at any of the other comps designed for guns that aren't 2011/1911's, pretty much all of them will be in 1/2 x 28. Jager glock compensator or something like that.

I use KKM barrels, and they cut the threads to .575X40 for me, just give them a call.

MBX makes their PCC brake in 1/2x28. They might be able to cut one of their pistol comps for you.

Is your barrel a bushing barrel?  That's probably why it is 1/2x28.  KKM does make 11/16x40 but on bull barrels:

I've had great work recently done with Jeff at Tommyguns.  Maybe contact him and see if he can fabricate a custom comp if you are set on the 1/2x28 thread pattern.

 

Another option is to see if EGW can help, for their bushing comps it's 575x40.  See if they will sell you a blank that you thread it yourself or they will do a custom one. 

 

Hope this helps.
