I’ve always been one to believe that a compensator for ordinary pistols was somewhat pointless since there’s not much recoil from the rounds, to begin with. I’ve been using my P320 X-Five for about two years without any complaints. Things were great until I saw a used P320 compact for sale at $300. Like an addict looking for a score, I had to jump on the deal and was now the proud owner of yet another P320. Unlike my other P320’s, I was looking for a host gun to take the slide and fire control unit out to build something a little more special.  With all the hype about next generation pistol brakes, I decided to build a SIG P320 Compensated range gun.
