The Vantage Point Armory 40005 Light-Mounted Compensator transforms the Sig P365 X Macro into a more controllable platform while maintaining compatibility with weapon-mounted lights. This precision-engineered compensator addresses the common challenge of muzzle flip in compact carry pistols without compromising the firearm's concealability or light attachment capabilities.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional compensators that interfere with light mounting, the 40005 features a unique dual-port design that redirects gas upward while preserving full clearance for tactical lights. The compensator reduces felt recoil by approximately 25% compared to the factory configuration. Machined from 7075-T6 aluminum with a Type III hard coat anodized finish, it maintains the pistol's weight balance while adding only 0.8 ounces to the overall system.
