Glock 20 10mm - Compensated vs Non Compensated?

[IdahoLT1]

Ignore the BS about muzzle flash. Most guns have worse muzzle flash without even having a ported barrel. If anything, I'd say it diminishes some of the muzzle flash by giving it 3 holes to escape from instead of 1.

Lol.

Yes there are 2 extra ports for the flames/gasses to escape. The problem is, its right in your line of sight. Shooting it at night or even at an indoor range causes alot of problems. Ive owned a G23C and know from experience.

Food for thought, Ted Nugent's G20 is Mag-Na-Ported.

If its good enough for Ted, its good enough for me.

An aftermarket compensated barrel actually INCREASES velocity. Yes, it has ports, but it is longer than the stock barrel. Any increase is insignificant, and is almost negated by the compensator anyway--but you certainly won't be losing any velocity.

Now with compensated barrels of the same length, i.e. stock and "C" models, the compensated barrel will lose some velocity. Again though, it is usually an insignificant amount (around 50 fps IIRC, depending on length and cartridge).

As for me, I would get a 6" threaded barrel. That way you can shoot it as-is or screw on a compensator (which in this case will increase velocity slightly).

Real men don't compensate.
