Hey Guys,

I'm looking to get a battlecomp compensator and install it on my Robinson Arms XCR. I noticed their are two versions the 1.0 and 1.5 what is the difference between the two? also what is the installation procedure? i've never switched one out so that's why i'm asking. Are their any dealers that carry them?

Thanks,
 
Check out one shot tactical. With regards to the difference, couldnt tell you. Im sure a 20 second google search of "battlecomp 1.0 vs 1.5" would sum it up.
 
The one five is longer for the Americans, gives them enough length to keep a 14.5" barrel legal.
You'll have to drill out the weld on your xcr, drive the pin out, and spin the brake off.
Be aware that the battlecomp isn't as effective of a brake as something like a surefire, or any such brake. It's kind of halfway between a brake and a flashhider in recoil reduction.
 
Why would you install an inferior muzzle device that costs so much?

Griffin Flash Comp is the way to go. Cheaper and Better. Contact Armtac (Advertiser here on CGN)
 
There are actually 3 versions; the 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0. The 1 and 2 are the same length, and for our purposes do the same thing. Thr only difference is that the 2.0 can be used with certain types of suppressors. As a result, it has very slightly different look.

As for the install, it's pretty straight-forward. First you remove your old muzzle device and (I'm assuming) crush washer. Throw the crush washer in the garbage as they are a 1 time use item. Next, you need to use a combination of spacers (included with the BattleComp) to space the comp so that the non-ported side is facing down. It is non-ported so that it doesn't throw up dust when prone, as well as calms muzzle rise. It is important to make sure that it's pretty exactly down in order to prevent sideways muzzle movement when firing.

When spacing, there really isn't any other option except trial and error. Keep adding or removing spacers till it lines up when the BattleComp is tightened. After that, you are good to go shooting.


For me, the Battlecomp is a nice middle-groud between a break and a flash-hider. It is noticeably louder than a flash-hider for people standing next to you, but no where near as bad as a break. If you are the one shooting, there is no noticeable differene in sound level.
 
Just crush the washer until it times. Took about 7/8 of a revolution past the initial point for mine.

You time a standard a2 flash hider the same way.
 
Only the 2.0 comes with shims as it needs to be aligned 100% if a suppressor will be mounted on it. I love mine, it tamed my jumpy 11.5" perfectly, I definitely recommend it. The 2.0 isn't necessary but you never know... And I prefer shims personally anyway.
