Strike Industries Mass Driver Compensator for Glock 19 Gen 3$94.95
Availability: In Stock
The Strike Industries Mass Driver Compensator for Glock 17 Gen 3 takes a fundamentally different approach to recoil management than traditional barrel-mounted comps. Rather than adding reciprocating mass to your slide cycle, the MDC system uses expanding gas dynamics to counter recoil while the slide moves rearward—letting your Glock 17 run at close to stock cycling speeds. This means reliable function without the reliability compromises that come with heavy compensators fighting your handgun's recoil-operated system.
What makes this comp stand out for Glock 17 Gen 3 shooters is the no-gunsmithing installation: you don't need to thread your barrel (though the MDC works with aftermarket threaded barrels from popular makers like ZEV, Faxon, and Suarez International). The compensator separates from your slide during operation, reducing the total reciprocating mass and keeping cycling smooth. The widened bore cuts down on baffle strikes, and a 2.5mm relief cut at the rear prevents damage to your slide's face.
Strike Industries engineered this comp to sit flush with OEM Glock slides and work in most open-bottom holsters—no special rig required. It's 50-state legal, CNC precision machined, and built with a snag-free profile that matches your slide width. Everything you need is included: the main body, recoil spring, guide rod assembly, internal spring, and fitment washer.
Installation requires basic armorer skills (a gunsmith is recommended). Use standard 9mm loads; +P and +P+ ammunition will accelerate internal spring wear and cause premature failure. Torque the guide rod nut to 25 lbs/in and apply Loctite Blue 242 to all threads.

Yes. Strike Industries has tested the MDC with popular aftermarket threaded barrels including AlphaWolf, Battle Arms Development, Faxon, ZEV Technologies, LANTAC, Suarez International, and many others. The system is compatible with most GLOCK-pattern threaded barrels on the market.
The MDC sits flush with OEM Glock 17 Gen 3 slides and is designed to fit most open-ended holsters that accommodate compensators. Because the profile matches your slide width, you won't need special holster gear.
Use standard 9mm ammunition only. Do not use +P or +P+ loads—these will cause premature internal spring wear and system failure. The system is designed for conventional pressure rounds.
