Anyone know if these will work on a KelTec RDB?
Thanks

I don't think a reverse can will work on a Dlask barrel GSG, Not enough barrel.
Hmm, I may just hack the back off of it if there's enough barrel to do that... I was gonna have a MP5SD looking fake can made up to go with Walmart Greeter's handguard but it would weigh a lot and add a lot of length back.
What is the function of the crush washer in this application? Or is that only needed if you want to "time" the thing so that the forward-facing ports are perfectly vertical/horizontal? This gizmo would seem to be fine if it were simply tightened on without a washer, but it is heavy enough that it would be nice to be able to remove/replace it as desired; using a crush washer would make this less convenient.

I don't think there would be enough. From what I seen on the 3 prototype barrels. You only got maybe a inch and 1/2 of exposed barrel. Plus the dlask barrels are going to have a M9x0.75 to 1/2-28 adapter. Which is going to be thicker.
You need a non reverse can style for your plans.
Keeps the compensator from backing off once you've torqued it on.
Okay, thanks; so it functions merely as a lock washer in this case? It should allow for a number of assembly/disassembly cycles before the washer needs replacement then.
I'm torn between this nice but heavy steel version, and the lightweight aluminum ones.
Exactly
I don't think you can reuse a crush washer.
Yes, but RDB has super long threads since it uses a lock nut to secure the stock A2 flash hider, (this is also a pain to remove since they have the hulk tighten the lock nut apparently). I put mine on, but the threads peak into the brake openings, so I'll prob have to get some lock nuts along with crush washer to set the appropriate depth. It WILL NOT fit with the stock handguard though without some modification to it. You'll with have to drill or file out the material from the stock handguard to get it to fit.
Speaking of which, you guys wouldn't happen to know if (https://truenortharms.com/ar15_default_store_view/jam-nut-for-muzzle-device-hex.html) will fit in the rear opening of the linear comp?

You can't normally, because you need it to apply tension when the muzzle device is at the desired point in its rotation; timing, indexing, whatever it's called. In this case I don't think that matters. Each time you reattach it you would just tighten a wee bit more, so the device will be rotated slightly different each time. Doesn't look like that would matter with this particular device.
