BBoyle Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 JMHO build it first without and see how you like it. Put a few hundred rounds through it. If you think the comp isnt working try bumping up the charge a little. If you still aren't satisfied you can always add the holes. I prefer the feeling of an open gun working off the compensator alone. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HSMITH Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 IMO the hybrid guns are harsh recoiling and insanely loud. I don't care for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larry cazes Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Ouch! Hybrid ports give me headaches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Cheely Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I prefer just a plain comp on the end. No holes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbocomp38s Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 no hybrid but I like two poppleholes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fireant Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 You are going to find that it varies from one shooter to the next. I started with a gun with a couple of popple holes, then went to a gun with 4 big honkin hybrid holes. Now both of my guns don't have any holes in the barrel except the one for the bullet to come out of. Try as many as you can before you decide.

tomface Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 In my opinion, the hybrid is more violent. You can tame it a bit by adding weight in the grip of the gun, (heavy mag well and steel mainspring housing). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
