Kaw Valley Precision Linear Comps are part of a small family of compensators aimed at taming muzzle concussion. The KVP linear comp, collects and redirects muzzle gases away from the shooter. This redirection helps reduce the perceived decibels the shooter experiences at his or her ear. By pushing excessive noise and concussion downrange, not only will the shooter experience a much softer shooting experience, bystanders will also benefit from the redirection of the muzzle gasses. Kaw Valley Precision has been a part of many successful applications of our linear comps in many shooting disciplines including: CQC (close quarters combat), Competitive Shooting, Varmint Hunting, Law Enforcement, and Indoor Ranges to name a few.

Since I used linear compensators on most of my ARs,
when I finally picked up a 9mm AR upper, I wanted a linear comp on it, too. It’s hard to find one in that caliber, except for Kaw Valley. I was delighted with their 9mm product, beautifully machined, easily installed, performed just as expected.
Thanks, KVP! Hope you do linear comps in all AR calibers, even for the “exotic stuff” like .458 SOCOM or .50 Beowulf, too!
Rick –
looks well built and installed easy.
Fast shipping
Chris U. –
Excellent 9mm linear comp. Wanted something for my 9mm AR, and this device did not disappoint. Well constructed, excellent surface finish, and helps with reduction of perceived recoil.
Jeffrey Top –
I have one on a BCM AR-15, and the other on my IWI Tavor. Both installed great and look great. I haven’t had the chance to use either one yet.
Christian Hilden –
I was looking for a 9mm muzzle device for my SBR build, and KVP filled that need nicely! Very well made and a forward exiting compensator is needed for an SBR!
Chad L –
looks great and works just as advertised, lowered recoil on my cmmg mk9 9mm carbine but not that much. Sound is noticeably reduced
Don Potter –
Only way to go!!! Have switched to linear on everything of mine that takes a break.
Christopher Smith –
Great product works great. Good price and fast shipping. Thanks for a good product!!
Richard K. Woodman –
Very good quality…best priced available…a must for AR pistol (IMO)…pew, pew, pew…
Matthew F –
I had the m4-72 severe duty first and didn’t end up liking it because It was too much concussion. This break is fantastic at mitigating the blast and some of the heard noise. The customer service I received was second to none and I’ll be ordering from them in the future.
Phil –
The KVP Linear Comp for my Sub2000 Gen 2 fit perfectly and is very well made. Customer service was very responsive and answered all my questions prior to my purchase. Delivery was exceptional. Kaw Valley Precision is an excellent company!
Bradley Percell –
These compensators work precisely like they are designed to work. They send virtually all of the bullet concussion down range, away from the shooter and bystanders.
They’re a must have (should be mandatory) for any type of indoor shooting range.
Ohlrogge –
Works great
Jose Lopez –
Works as advertised!!!! Must have for an AR 9mm pistol!
Chadwick Primeaux –
Smaller than expected but nice product, rec’d in a very timely manner.
Randall Kuboi –
Service excellent ordered and received 3 days. Tried it out today can’t feel that much difference but I sure like the look of it better. Thanks
Shawn Gilland –
Customer service was outstanding, i was looking for a linear compensator for 3days and everywhere that i looked at was sold out with no date to restock.
So i continued to make phone calls and i got a referral to KAW VALLEY so i called and the guy was very helpful and answered all my questions and he placed my order, made my label and the package was shipped the next morning, i got all my confirmation email and the packed was delivered on time.
They will have my business again.
Gilk1018 –
This is probably the best single device for AR type pistols, this is my second one, both of them used on 7.5 inch uppers. I say single because the only better option may be a surefire break with an added warden blast diffuser, which is about a $300 package….
Richard –
Excellent product and quick well packaged professional shipping !
I would recommend KAW to anyone one of my shooting peers .
Thank you
David Butler –
Super fast shipping!!! Easy to fit and looks great. Haven’t had a chance to take it shooting so I can’t talk about effectiveness.
Thomas –
Final touch for a recent AR pistol build-11.5″. Looked great and the function worked as described. The ‘recoil’ is straight back and groups showed how easy it was to manage staying on target. Flash signature was reduced compared to an A2 or no device, but about every 4th shot gave a flash-think occasional car backfire. Recommended device for short barrels in the 5.56 flavor.
Chris Perry –
Fast shipping excellent product. Looks and works great on my 9mm build.
D. Weller –
It’s hard to find a linear comp in 10mm.
Service was fast.
Fit and finish were 1st rate!
Randy Cain –
This muzzle replacement was easy and makes the Kel Tec Sub 2000 Gen 2 look so much better. Highly recommend!
Timothy Cash –
Got this to put on a 16″ 9mm carbine and it looks great and the finish is excellent. This Linear works so well I can shoot without ear protection (outdoors) if necessary. It sends 90% of the concussion and noise down range, and recoil is light with little, if any, muzzle rise.
Charles Stone –
This will be my second linear comp on an AR. While the comp doesn’t reduce the sound for everyone else, it certainly seems quieter and less concussive for the shooter. The Kaw Valley Precision linear comp is simple and looks very nice.
kerry kelly –
EXCELLENT
Kevin Saddi –
Quality of product looks very high, I’m excited to install this onto my AR-15 and try it out on the range. Very fast delivery.
Sam –
Cannot comment yet on the function of the 9mm comp. But I can say that customer service is great and quick. Fit and finish is perfect. Just have to wait for the rain to stop to go and test it.
CZForum.com –
Everything I said as the Title to this. I will be doing business with these folks again very soon.
Matt Hawkins –
Ordered from Kaw Valley Precision, and received it promptly. These are beautifully machined. I already have one on my S&W M&P 15. There is a definite noise reduction to the shooter on the AR, based on my opinion, and that of two other shooters who were with me. Will report back when I shoot the Keltec.
Donald Hibbs –
Great quality and fast service (3 days).Gives my new Sub-2000 a distinct look.
Dustoff Tactical –
Fast service! Ordered it Friday and it was in my mail box Monday!
Robert monk –
I installed these on two builds for customer and they love it.
Ang Li –
Before making the purchase, I contacted KVP about lead time at almost 11PM on a Sunday night, and my question was answered in 20 minutes. I placed the order the next day and received the shipping notification about 10 minutes later. The item arrived on time and looks great on my AR. I’m looking forward to buying more products from KVP, they have greatly exceeded my expectations.
Edward Charlillo –
The KVP Linear Comp worked very well on my short-barrel AR-15. I plan on buying another one for my Remington Model 7 in 300 Blackout. A fine product!
Dennis M. –
I purchased this for my AR9 that is threaded 1/2×28 tpi. This linear comp works perfect for 9mm’s that are threaded for this pitch instead of the standard 5/8×24.
the fit and finish of this compensator is first class and it performs very well.
BRIAN KOZUCH –
Nice product. Quick ship
Patrick Snider –
Great fit and finish
Fast shipping.
Will do business again
Scott Pike –
Very nice product, but at least in the 9mm variant, the threaded section is way too long. It really should be 1/2″ long, which could either make for a longer chamber or shorter device. If there’s any chance you’d custom make a couple, I’d love to know it
Ron –
Product fit the needs for a linear comp on my 9mm SBR. Fit and finish was excellant
Rick Rufo –
I got them in a fast time. They look quaillty make but I haven’t tried them out yet. I hope to this weekend.
Tyler –
just received the kaw valley linear comp and was able to test it out today. Great product that keeps the percussion forward of the shooter and it also help with muzzle rise. Other comps do more for keeping the muzzle down but are not nearly as friendly to the shooters hearing. Very happy with the product it works as intended
Carlos Pacheco –
I was very pleased with the quality of this product. Finish seems to be good quality and it does what it was designed to do.
Bigal7199 –
Great product super fast shipping happy customer thank you
Erick –
This linear comp is awesome! I bought this comp specifically for shooting prone. This is the best. I will change all my comps with this one. Thanks KVP. The search for the best comp ends.
Andrew Quesada –
Awesome comp. Definitely worth the money and really fast shipping. Thanks very much….
Larry –
I just used it yesterday and I really liked how it worked. I used it on my JRC 9 G3 carbine and it was great.
Larry Lefaivre –
Have not had a chance to use yet . Weather has been too cold or raining product looks great nice finish and shipping was fast put one of them on the Ruger charger takedown for a cool factor look put one on an AR 15 pistol and have another one for the next project
Jason –
Great product. Easy ordering. Quick delivery.
Laure Bee Roberson –
I was very skeptical in buying this item however after buying it I am exceptionally pleased at the fit and function. I will buy again.
Steve Mueller –
Compliments my 9mm build perfectly and functions as stated. Great product and fast shippping!
James Davis –
It is very well made and certainly helps with noise mitigation, sending the percussion forward of the shooter. The only thing I would suggest to KVP is it would be cool if the compensator came with a crush washer. But that’s just a personal opinion.
Randy Cain –
This was my 2nd order for this product. The muzzle compensator for the sub 2000 installs easily and looks and performs great. Highly recommend if you are considering one for your rifle.
jacattak –
was looking for something different from all the basic flash hiders, and read some good reviews on this one, so “pulled the trigger” and bought one. Nicely made, clean finish, sharp threads, and should look good with the custom front end pieces I’m working on. still building, so I can’t say how it works yet.
bryan VILLELLA –
Love my new comp and the delivery time was awesome. Will definitely do business with these guys again
John McElroy –
Your product worked as advertised. Definitely noticed difference in muzzle blast. Does focus the noise/blast away from shooter. No perceived difference in muzzle flip. All in all good product.
Harold Hammond –
It works perfect. I can shoot my rifle with no ear plugs if i want to. Well made also. This is my second comp. from Kaw Valley Precision.
Dan Trammell –
After firing at a coyote without ear plugs I decided to try the KVP Comp. Since most coyotes and other varmints don’t wait for me to put on hearing protection and the Fred Eichler is way too loud with the stock muzzle brake. The KVP does reduce the noise enough where I can shoot without hurting my ears if I’m in a hurry or situation without hearing protection. I did notice more recoil and barrel rise but not much. I still use hearing protection for practice but for hunting or a defense situation the KVP is a very good choice.
Scott Musser –
Arrived quickly, worked great.
Frank N –
I’ve not had a chance to install my new comp yet but very impressed with overall appearance and workmanship.
A couple of KAW items are on my wish list
Thomas Etheridge –
Great product and fast shipping. Comp was well made and correspondence with them is great. I would recommend them to other people who are looking for parts
Mark –
Super fast shipping,Excellent Quality Product,Would buy from again,Highly recommended,you get your money s worth!
MICHAEL IANIRO –
This is a great comp for the Evo 3 S1. I went with the 18 x 1 version. This comp directs all the gases forward and is just what I was looking for. This is a great product and the customer service was excellent. Fast shipping. I’m completely satisfied and would buy from Kaw Valley Precision again.
Kenneth Lee –
This linear Compensator is the best I have used. It definitely sends the sound and gases downrange. The rifle has no muzzle rise, it kicks very midly straight back. I will be using this on all my builds.
David S. –
I added this to my rifle so that when target shooting the noise to the side of me is reduced greatly. Other people at the range really appreciate this function and benefit!
Michael Cavlan –
great little product, i thought it mite make my rifle louder and was glad it didn’t . im happy with the performance and fit.
Ethan M. –
Ordered on Wednesday evening, got it on Friday, so fast shipping. Feels nice and light, even on my HBAR set up (nice going, Maryland). Simple and effective grooves to install it easily. Now off to the range to test it out!
RICHARD ARNOLD –
I have installed the KVP Linear Compensator on an AR-15 300 Blackout. I have not been to the range but its design looks to accomplish purpose I wanted – deflecting more of the sound down range instead of sideways. Also the Linear Comp weights less than the flash suppressor it replaced.
Bill K. –
I have previously installed a linear compensator on a bullpup .308 and had excellent results – but the installation was more work.
The KVP comp for my CZ Scorpion was the easiest install of any such device I have ever done. Wife and I tested the gun with the comp on it yesterday. Blast forward – very pleasant to shoot, no affect on zero with three different loads tested.
Great product!
G G G –
Customer service was good. The unit looks well built. In all disclosure, I need to put 200 rounds downrange yet.
I ordered the wrong 9mm comp because the website said (AR9 and Keltec..). That is a misnomer. The Keltec is only for the Keltec sub2000, not AR9’s. They did a very prompt exchange for me.
David Stickley –
This works very well at reducing the sound blast to those people around you at the range!
Ken –
Exactly what I was looking for excellent fit and finish, great service and got here on time. Would highly recommend this company
Ray Redlin –
Installed the Comp BLK and put a few rounds through it and it worked fine. Even shot it while not wearing hearing protection and could hear after shooting. Great product, I will be trying to sell some for you. I have a few friends that can use it.
Norman Miller –
This is the second comp I’ve purchased from Kaw Valley. The first was also a linear comp for a 5.56 upper. It worked so well I knew I had to get one for my 300 BLK upper. I ordered it on the Thursday (Dec 28) before the New Years weekend and had it on Jan 2.
Michael –
This compensator is the best I have ever used. It meets the claims of performance easily. It makes shooting more enjoyable. I am buying a couple more for my other rifles.
Rivergunner –
My barrel came with a muzzle brake and it was miserable to shoot even with muffs. I dont like using ear plugs while hunting. Now I can actually take my AR. Really sends the sound out away from your ears.
Marty –
I haven’t tried it on my own rifle yet but I had a chance to try a friends 300 BLK with the linear comp on it. I was impressed with the performance and style. I now have one to complete a 300 build I’m working on. Great price and fast shipping. Thanks KVP
George –
Quick turnaround once ordered. Have not tried these out yet, but will be back to update this review.
Eric –
Shipping was fast and the finish seems to be very good. I haven’t installed it yet to see how it stands up to heavy fire but I’m impressed!
Michael Simpson –
Patrick –
exactly what I was looking for. Had the comp within 3 days.
Tom B –
This comp is awesome. Really pushes report downrange. Also practically eliminated muzzle flip. I get more push to the right now, if anything. Very pleased. Reasonable price, quick delivery.
Mike Grucholski –
Very pleased with the results.
Have been making recommendations to my friends.
Sammy D Barnes –
Product looks and functions great. Only complaint is I wish they would make it in flat black to match finish on ar’s . I would recommend it . Pistol still a little loud which is expected with short barrels. I give it 5 Stars.
Howard Burdett –
Darby –
The product was exactly what I wanted in a linear comp and KVP shipped extremely fast!
Robert Crowder –
THANK YOU;
Really happy ,looks good, . In process of going after a 308,I’ll be able too make for one of them
Rick Phanton –
Good quality fit and finish. Shipped
out and received quickly. Great purchase for a short barreled AR rifle or pistol. Just a bit more money than some other flash cans but definitely a better broduct than the cheaper ones out there.
Jeremy –
Haven’t installed the compensator yet, but it arrived ahead of schedule and no issues with the part or packaging.
Kenneth Kerruish –
This is a solid compensator, exactly as described.
The machining is well done, threads are clear, defined and finished well.
The black coating (anodizing?) is smooth and attractive.
Overall, I would not hesitate to recommend this to other people.
Robert Martin –
Good fit, finish and shipped quickly.
Robert Cardwell –
Shipping time was great! But after looking at an e-mail from Joe Bob Outfitters it looked like I could’ve got it shipped to me for free!?! A little disappointed but it won’t deter me from buying the product if I find it works well on my stuff. Hey lemme knowwwww when the DE comp. is ready for my 9mm pistol barrel. THX, Robert
Ralph Casey –
Wow,I haven’t shot any of my two new toys as yet,but I should be treated as an owner of the Company because I have talked to anyone who would listen about your products. The videos on YouTube were solid and amazing at the same time! I ordered and they were here. Quality in looks and feel and ease of putting it on the toy it goes with! I will return after I shoot it and give The Rest of the Storyline Besides we all love it when we find out about good people in good companies, we want them to succeed!
chad dewar –
Got exactly what I ordered, got to me 3 days earlier than expected, which can only mean the shipping department is on point and squared away with KAW. I’ll definitely be making another order soon.
George –
We complete all of our builds with this comp!
Max –
This is the second 223/556 Linear Comp that I have purchased. The quality of the machine work, fit, and finish is Outstanding! Quick shipping is an understatement. The sound reduction was as advertised, but the recoil reduction was a bonus! Thanks KVP!!
orlando cotto –
I love it, had a lot of fun with my cz scorpion, it made a huge difference in recoil reduction
Blaine Newlin –
My 10.5 with a comp used to clean the bench off each shot, magazines would fly. This directs the blast away and the people around you don’t complain so much.
john –
Installed on Savage 6.5 Creedmoor on second trip to range.
Just like they said. It directed the concussion forward along with the sound and muzzle blast. Can’t say anything about muzzle rise but didn’t affect bulls eye at 300 yds.
Appeared to tame recoil. Looks good on barrel.
I am more impressed with safety in taming muzzle blast.
I do recommend this product.
Justin –
Have not fired it yet but I’m sure it will perform as expected.
Rodney Hill –
Have not been able to shoot with it yet but like that it is much smaller than a lot of the other linear brakes. But showed up quick and looks great
Michael Digiantonio –
Overall, I would highly recommend the KVP linear compensator!!
I work at an indoor gun range as both a instructor and range safety officer and I cannot begin to describe the punishment of 3 or 4 short barrelled rifles with muzzle breaks on the range at the same time!! After some research, I decided to add the KVP Linear Compensator to my own rifle. I was not disappointed, the perceived report and concussion were reduced significantly. Having placed my self between two other shooters and asking for their opinion, they also agreed with my opinion on the performance of this compensator. Best of all….no change in point of impact!!! The compensator is aesthetically pleasing and not bulky, easy to install(though I wish KAW Valley would include a new crush washer), and very well built.
PAUL DACYCZYN- Northampton Firearms –
Put a couple on personal firearms, AR and 9mm, we were pleasantly surprised. Reduced concussion on firingline dramatically. We can easily sell these.
Jason –
A excellent comp that screwed on flawlessly to my Sub2k. Honestly better in person than the picture shows. Highly recommended!
Varminterror –
I use KVP linear compensators on all of my SBR’s and most of my high pressure cartridges. The recoil reduction is notable, but the muzzle blast to the shooter is greatly reduced. I used a KVP Linear Compensator on my 6.5 Grendel which I used for deer this year, took two shots with the Comp out of the blind window – my ears weren’t even ringing after the shots. No temporary deafness, no ringing, no underwater feeling. My latest order was for another LC for a 6.8 SBR, 10.5”, to keep as much blast moving forward as I can, away from me, without adding the gas purge, length, weight, and cost of a suppressor.
KVP also does an awesome job of processing and shipping – on my most recent order, I placed my online order after 1pm, and received the order the next day with standard shipping (Kansas to Kansas). I ordered from two other vendors the same day, and they didn’t even send my shipment processing notices before I received my KVP order.
James Lenaburg –
Slim, seem to be effective. I bought one for my Scorpion, my 9mm PCC and an SBR AR15. I’ve tried the Scorpion one and compared to another style and like the KAW Linear Comp better.
Will be trying the others soon.
Patrick Shrum –
appears to be good quality, have not used it because I ordered the wrong size, apparently I misread some of the information on the website, thread and muzzle are correct, was just under impression it was going to be larger diameter, my bad, thx
Stephen Knight –
Simple and clean design was my biggest reason for the purchase of your linear comp over other manufacturers. Wanted something slim lined to send the blast down range. Muzzle break I had was driving me insane with the concussion. Only ran a few rounds through product so far just to test the blast forwarding capabilities and so far I’m pleased.
Brad Darling –
Very high quality and nicely finished.
The company is very good pleasant to deal with and shippping is very quick
Sam Bowerman –
Customer service was excellent. Quality seems very nice, have not been utilized as of this date. Also, very appreciative of Law Valley Precision offering courtesy discount to those of us who have served and are serving! Sincere appreciation, Sam B.
M –
Absolutely smooth threads, fits perfectly and looks great. Worth every penny. Also top tier shipping speed.
MATTHEW OHARA –
This was recommended to me by gun shop. I highly recommend Company/product. Because my SIG pistol was 13.5x1L I had to find I had to find 13.5x1L to 1/2×28.Only $25. Thanks.Matt
Fred –
I like the linear comp a lot. Fit and finish were superb. I have mine mounted on a Sig MPX and it works great. Projects the sound forward as advertised. No noticeable increase or push in recoil impulse. Excellent product.
George Marshall –
Jason Williams –
Johnny B –
This is my fourth KVP comp, and boy am I happy. Great fit, great function, and it looks fantastic. Easy to order, great communication. Enthusiastic thumbs up.
Monte Artz –
Fasting shipping
manuel figueroa gonzalez –
Excellent!
Stephen –
Noisy but seemed to take the sharpness out of the “boom”.
The difference seemed to be especially noticeable from the side. It changed the point of impact but grouped as good or a little better than before. Recoil did not seem to be reduced.
Purchase was hassle free and delivery on time.
Donald Stokey –
Sean Gehri –
Fast shipping. KVP Linear Comp looks great and works even better on my 9mm 8.5″ pistol build.
180 Second Ideas –
I have five KVP comps and they are outstanding. They look great but the perform even better. Easy to install. Great customer service. I’M HAPPY.
Steve –
Very nice compensator, extremely fast shipping and excellent packaging. Exceeded my expectations.
PATRICK C –
Excellent fit and finish. Great accessory for the CZ Scorpion.
Russell Jenkins –
easy install and fast service. cant wait to try it.
bryan r –
Have not “used” yet (performance), but very timely service. Quality/fit is great with a decent price point.
Appreciate the various thread pitch offerings for different caliber offerings; not so easy to find these days.
George Marshall –
Rick –
Arrived quickly, well packaged. Comps look very nice, excellent machine work. Haven’t used them yet, builds are still in progress. I am very satisfied with my purchase.
Michael Ball –
Best linear comp I have ever used
Raul –
I received my KVP Lonear Comp in a fast timely manner. I also received superb customer service. I had asked a question concerning the proper size comp for a .458 SOCOM. I received a very prompt clear concise reply concerning the question. I can say without a doubt the quality in craftsmanship is superb and very high quality without breaking the bank. I look forward to now actually getting to the range and putting it to the test.
Dacara –
John –
Have become a big fan of linear comps and have several different calibers, brands and styles. Performance does vary. This one does a great job. A+. World like to see this available in a Short Mag profile
Steven Myers –
Excellent product. this is the 2nd one I have ordered . very effective. I have it on my AR and my PC9
George Marshall –
Phil –
Awesome comp! Very little muzzle rise and is noticeably quieter than my pws brake. I put it on a 14.5 barrel with 15” handguard and the look is amazing. Thank you.
George Malekos –
Ordered for my sub2000 in 40 cal…noticed reduction in sound and looks awesome
David Cargill –
An acquaintance asked me about “linear compensators” and I didn’t know anything about them, so I looked them up on the web. Found lots of favorable reviews for Kaw Valley Precision. Wow!!! The quality and the looks are stunning and the shooters to left and right appreciate the noise reduction. Highly recommend!
Joseph A –
It looks good too!!
Nik –
Very nice construction. Fast shipping. Great company!
LEVI WEAVER –
Snake River Armory –
Works With Many Guns, Looks Great,
Easy To Install. Good Value and FAST shipping from KVP.
Shane Morelan –
Put on a kriss vector looks great
Andy Veera –
I was really drawn to this linear compensator, it’s looks, and it’s functionality. All the positive reviews helped me purchase the KVP linear compensator!
Gerald Vine –
The linear compensator arrived and is exactly what was shown. Fit and finish are perfect and it threaded up to my SilencerCo Sig P330 full size barrel without issue. It is the perfect compliment to my FireControlUnit X-01 Sig build. I couldn’t be happier.
Dominic Burda –
What can I say about the KVP linear comp. it is beautiful, extremely well constructed and looks very good tucked under a 16.5 inch guard. I would definitely buy another or recommend to anybody looking for this style of compensator. Very happy with my purchase.
Matthew Douglas –
I will let people know where to go forsure. Fast and easy ordering and extremely fast delivery. I ordered my part a day before memorial day and got the conformation email on a holiday and the partbefore i needed it.
Phil Whitehead, Owner; MP Veteran Custom Firearms –
Far and away-
My favorite muzzle brake.
Period.
David Hairell –
Comp works great, fit and finish is excellent
Kevin Huntington –
Awesome products at an awesome price. Ordered 2 for 223/556 and 243… Does what it’s intended to do and I couldn’t be happier with the performance. Thanks Kaw Valley Precision’s!
Cameron Bogan –
Linear Comp was exactly like described and it came so quick. I ordered and a day later it was in the mailbox. Awesome…. Keep up the good work KVP.
KEANON GILLIAM –
I received my compensator late in the day so I had to wait the next day to try it on my CMMG Banchee 45acp. Examining it I can see the workmanship of this product which looked very good. Finally shot with it at the range and noticed all the sound was directed forward with no alteration it the Banchee’s performance in accuracy. It was everything that Sootch00 said about your compensator in his review of the Banchee 45acp on his YouTube channel.

Very hard to find any muzzle devices in my certain thread pitch. This fits perfect and would pass as factory. Super fast shipping as well.
P –
This is my second linear compensator, as always Kaw Valley was a dream to work with. My order was processed correctly, and shipment was very quick.
Awesome job. Keep up e good work.
I recommend their products. Their fit and the finish on my compensators is impecable
I will purchase forum them in the future
Steve Hornung –
I received the compensator just as stated.
The product is made very well and will be buying another for my other builds.
I have not used it yet, but very hopeful it works as well as I expect it will.
I am a very happy customer and will be recommending your products to my shooting buddies.
david beasley –
Good quality, used on 6.5 Creedmoor,
Would recommend
George Marshall –
Nicholas Romig –
Put this on my ruger ranch in 350 legend, works great, impressed how much quieter my gun seems to sound and took it from about an inch gun at 100 yards to little less than half inch.
Walden Arms, LLC –
Loves these on rifles that bark. Allows folks to shoot in close proximity to each other. Recoil reduction is noticeable.
Jason Moore –
I am very happy with this purchase quick delivery, very good craftsmanship, and fits perfect with my pistol build, now to just try it out. I will definitely be ordering from here again for future builds
Jordan Blinne –
Kaw Valley, and your products rock!
Great work!
Thank you!
Jordan
Alan Becker –
I am very satisfied with this unit as far as appearance, fit to my Ruger barrel muzzle threads, and looks well made. I have yet to test it with ammo and look forward to testing!
Scott Wilmes –
Great product, I ordered the wrong one and they gladly exchanged it in a quick and easy manner. I will recommend to all my friends.
Scott –
Jeff –
Nice quality and fit looks great on my AR-9
Works great also
Highly recommend
Joe Mascia –
Am installing this on a 10/22 rebuild. Haven’t gotten everything together, and probably won’t for another 60 days, but it does fit on the barrel nicely. After I get a few hundred rounds of different ammo thru it, I will get back to you.
Shawn Stark –
Bought the linear comp for my ar to reduce the noise and concussion I felt shooting it. Simple to install and worked better than expected, plus it looks great on the end of the barrel. I’m buying another for my other ar soon.
Samuel Weaver –
Charlie –
I installed one on my 458 socom, and it Definitely throws the sound, shock wave, and blast forward,as well as reducing the recoil. If you have to pull the trigger on this caliber without hearing protection, a flash hider isn’t the way to go, nor is a standard style muzzle brake, Get One Of These !
Joesph Wilson –
I’ve only installed this product but it looks great and installed easily. Would buy again.
Roderick Marruffo –
It looks sleek, screws right on & it works…!
Douglas Dobbin –
Steel construction. Looks like it will hold up well.

The KVP linear comp (556) is a perfect fit for a Faxon 16 inch fluted barrel tucked inside a 17.5 inch midwest handguard. The diameter is perfect and the length is flush. Just beautiful craftsmanship and beautiful fit and finish. As with all linear comps, an absolute joy to shoot, sending all concussive blast forward. Highly recommend! Even during this crazy time with the “virus”, ordering and shipping were spot on. Great job all around!!
James Liles –
Works as advertised. I mounted it on a.300 BLK pistol with a 7.5” barrel and it and it pushes all spent gases and unburned powder forward and makes it more comfortable to shoot.
ROB –
The workmanship and quality are great I have not had a chance to test it on my AR pistol.

Unfortunately, I have not had the opportunity to use the comp yet, however, customer service is great and shipping was fast! I’m pleased with aesthetics of the product I received.
Michael Kerby –
Fast shipping, comp is well made and works as advertised
Rand Nelson –
I switched my order at the last minute. The adjustment was made quickly and I was able to get the correct linear compensator for my .40 caliber carbine.
I already have the same compensator for my AR-15s (switched out more expensive and noisier compensators). In California, the compensators I had were particularly noisy for those shooting next to me. The Kaw Valley Precision Linear Compensator sends that noise down range. It tightens on the threaded barrel without having to worry about spacing or positioning so that the ports are perfectly aligned vertically or horizontally — they’re all forward — good value, functional, esthetic, and solid. Obviously, would buy again — did.

Looks awesome and fits like a charm. Great little comp and look forward to taking it to the range.

I just received my linear compensator 18×1 for my CZ scorpion and it is aesthetically pleasing I must say. It fits perfectly. I can’t wait until range day
Aaron Pritchard –
Excellent fit and finish, I have used them on several calibers/builds. They are especially useful while hunting when you may not have time to grab your hearing protection. They throw the shockwave forward, away from the shooter.
Jesse Hunt –
Fast delivery! Putting it on this weekend. Purchased two and gave one to a police officer I’ve known for 35 years at a pool party last night…
AR Pistol build –
I got the .223-.556 unit. The back half of the comp is under my Brovo Company 7″ handguard on a 6″ barrel.
Looks badass, shoots very good. Watched slo-mode video and the muzzle barely rises. Using a retractable pistol brace.
I will be purchasing more product in the future, and so will my buddies.

jeffrey hall –
Fit and finish excellent. Exactly what I was looking for. 4 stars since I haven’t taken it to the range yet. I expect it will perform as good as it fits and looks. I’m waiting on the same comp in 18×1 for my scorpion.
Robert Ballew –
LOOKS AWSOME

I can’t review the linear compensator I bought, since I haven’t been able to test it yet because I accidentally ordered the wrong one.
I can, however, review the customer service I received when I contacted KVP to exchange it for the correct one, and they were great; very fast and very helpful.
John L –
Very easy the place to order online! The order shipped and parts were received very quickly! I would 100% do business with these guys anytime! Keep up the great work!
Michael Brown –
Awesome! Shipping times were fast and installation was a breeze. Tested it out and the product definitely works. Reduced the sound at my ear and made for an overall enjoyable shooting experience. 16″ midlength gas system AR
Drew Baye –
Both recoil and noise felt lower on my CZ Scorpion Micro after installing the linear compensator.
I made a mistake when I placed my initial order, and KVP customer service were extremely helpful in correcting it.

Great service. Haven’t tried it yet, but it looks so good I don’t care if it works or not.
George Marshall –
John DeRose –
Very nicely made product and very fast shipping.
Clayton Winston –
The 1/2-28 compensator fits perfect on my CZ scorpion. Fast shipping even through these troubling times. Definitely will be ordering one for my Sig AR pistol.
Derrick Landrum –
Does it’s job of putting noise ahead of the shooter.
Scott Brown –
Not my first order from Kaw Valley because I really like their product! I was a little disgruntled with shipping at first it SEEMED like it was taking forever. Turned out there was a lag in the tracking.(I’m getting this on several orders and several different companies) From order to mail box in 8 days is pretty dang good during the Covid -19 Pandemic.
It’ll be tested at the range next weekend, but I expect it’ll be like the last 2, perfect!
George Marshall –
Harley Neal –
Fit perfect on my Exstar EP9
Wayne Rollison –
Thank you for prompt delivery, I replaced the muzzle brake on my 450 Bushmaster with your standard comp. everything went as it should the fit was tight and seems secure. I haven’t shot it yet but I am sure it will work good.
Bruce Munroe –
Received my Kaw Valley Comp. Thank you to Cathy Brugman for answering my questions and guiding me through your ordering process. Your LEAVE A MESSAGE box is a real plus.thanks again.
Mark Garland –
Recieved a .450/.458 linar comp. It looks awesome can’t wait to try it out!!!
JOSE GONZALEZ –
It reduces muzzle blast but it increases recoil and changes point of impact.
Sam Bowerman –
Excellent service as always!
Michael Mumpower –
I have one one on an Faxon AR 9 Pistol & a Faxon AR 15 Pistol 10.5 barrel. Working well on both.
John Michael Zeedick –
The KVP Linear Compensator is well built and performs beautifully with a Franklin binary trigger setup on a 10.5″ barrel AR pistol. KVP shipped promptly and the comp was delivered very quickly. Could not be more satisfied with their service and product quality.
Ted –
put on my OA93. looking forward to test this!
David Rhoades –
Ordered a linear comp and it was at my door in 3 days. Excellent business.
Chad –
Flash suppression on an AR pistol is a tall order sometimes. The A2 flash hider doesn’t do much for that so I’m wanting to push that mess downrange. Haven’t had time to shoot with it yet. Shipping was fast.
Jeremiah Copeland –
Shipped very fast and looks great on my stribog.
Dan –
Fast shipping. Good looking product. Matched threads on my 300 AAC barrel. Haven’t had a chance to shoot it yet.
Carl –
Excellent product and experience ????????????????????????
Terrence Lee –
Shipped fasted, looks good, and feels good while shooting.
Jason Blake –
I ordered this compensator for my AR-15 riffle. A deputy on my shift actually had one and we had to use his patrol riffle to put an injured animal down. The compensator allowed us to use his riffle without hearing protection. Although the riffle is still loud, the compensator pushed the noise out in front of the riffle rather then the original compensator. Which push the noise out around the riffle.
Kawvalley shipped my order fast and I actually received my order a day earlier then the projected date. I would definitely recommend this compensator and the company KawValley to anyone!
Ed –
Haven’t gotten out to test the comp but it arrived in a few days after ordering (I live in CA) and installed like a breeze without needing to be timed. So far so good!
Robert Craig –
The Linear Comp not only looks great but does what is advertised. KVP was easy to order from and shipping was fast. Will be buying more KVP products for other builds.
Brian Candler –
Excellent product. I use LinerComps on all my builds. Fast shipping.
All the blast is forward not out the sides. Definitely easier on the ears.

The standard muzzle brake on the Ruger American .450 Bushmaster would leave you deaf for about two weeks after deer season. It was so bad I bought a pair of Walkers which I hate using while deer hunting.
I affixed the Liner Comp here and am happy to report the walkers can stay in home while hunting. I took a deer earlier this week from my stand with no hearing protection and my ears were fine (No ringing or loss of perception). I’d certainly recommend wearing hearing protection while sighting in or a day at the range. But if your going to be hunting I feel its fine to shoot a few times without protection.
The .450 still has a punch but I didn’t notice any difference with the linear comp compared to the factory muzzle brake.
I will say my hunting buddies thought it was the loudest gun they’ve ever heard in the woods. So that blast is certainly moving forward.
Save your ears and buy this comp.
Brian Totten –
Sleek in design, light weight, and looks amazing on my LR-308. Havent had the opportunity to test it yet.
Gene Hutchinson –
Just received the KVP linear compensator for my Kel-Tec 9mm SUB2000. Beautifully designed and manufacturered part. Looking forward to installing it on my weapon and going to the range. And the delivery was fast and no issues. Thanks for a great experience Jaw Valley!
Tony Minyon –
Every once in a while, I get something for my firearms that performs exactly as described…this is another one
I ordered this for my CMMG Banshee in 9mm Glock. Knowing that a comp is not required or even worthwhile, I wanted something to drive the percussion down range
This linear comp arrived very quickly, installed in minutes, and after just testing it, did exactly what Kaw Valley said it would do
Due to the short barrel and my face being near the stock, the perceived recoil was much less, and all of the blast was driven down range and away from me
The best purchase I made for my firearms in a long time
Wonderful job Saw Valley!
James Sumner –
Really excited about receiving the part in a timely manner. I am in the process of building my 6.5 Grendel and hope to test it next week.
michael ruppert –
This eliminates the danger of compensator flash burn from AR15 pistols and SDRs. on the support hand of the gun. Also greater reduces the muzzle flash.
Julian Yang –
Works as intended. No issues with bore alignment after install. Can definitely hear and feel the difference with the comp.
Bernard Jones –
Show one of their products on a gun review and just had to get one for myself. I live i. Jersey so our gun laws are wackey. Shot them an email they where quick and professional and Im really enjoying there product
Bruce Sales –
Product looks great! Shipping was lightening fast!
Pete Knelsen –

Joe Peltier –
Lroduct as described with great finish and perfect fit for my 6.5 Grendel build
George Topalidis –
Great product. Love the size for my pcc and thread pitch is perfect as expected, screwed on without any issues or awkward bind.
Gabriel Streeter –
My purchase arrived incredibly fast and mindfully packaged! The product itself looks to be of top-notch quality…now I just need to find time to get to the range and try it out! I will definitely be doing business with Kaw Valley again!
wil –
I love the liner como on my 7.5” AR. Directly the blast forward really makes it fun again to shoot the short barrel
Lowell –
Excellent workmanship and effectiveness; I’ve purchased 4 of these now in different calibers. Highly recommended.
Josh Kurtz –
The fit was great. No threading issues. Looks good and does what it says. It came in a bag that looked like it should have trail mix in it. I’m not sure why that struck me as odd, but it did. The shipping was lightning fast. Very happy with my purchase. Great stuff
James Jarrell –
Just what I needed for my build. Looks great and works great!
Eugene –
I have purchased three of the linear compensators from Kaw Valley to date, two in 5.56/.223, and one in 9mm. I have the 9mm on a KelTec Sub2000 and love it. Looking forward to using my newest additions on my two AR15s.
Kevin –
Just as described and nicely packaged. Perfect fit.
Richard T –
Excellent product with an exception price. I’m very satisfied with this high quality compensator.
Daniel Back –
Received the product rapidly, seems very well built and quality. I have not shot with it yet, but looks great and installed easy.
Jeffrey Bastian –
Nice work, finish and fitment. Does exactly what it is intended to do. Will purchase again on my next similar build.
Fast order processing and shipping.
You cannot ask any more from a company.
Great job KVP, look forward to purchasing from you in the future.
Jordan Drake –
Looks and performs well! Fast shipping! 10/10 would recommend!

Great product at a great price. Very well built and does exactly what it is suppose to.
Craig –
I purchase your linear compensator for my CZ 457, and it fits perfect and looks great. I’ve shot it several times, and it works great. Thanks!
Lawrence St Denis –
Second comp I’ve ordered, good quality and value.
Erik Nash –
the ease of purchase of the compensator i got was so easy fast and simple.
The timely delivery was even better.
The only thing i would like to see would be more shipping options, say like over night or something like that, other than that service was A+ all the way will order again on my next build.
David –
Product ordered was product sent. EXTREMELY FAST shipping, too! Thanks KVP.
WENDELL COOK –
Works like a champ Looks nice ,well made.
Very seldom get what you pay for now.
6 stars
thanks
WILLIAM PINKERT –
Very well made product, fit and finish is excellent. Have not had the opportunity to go to the range yet, but will let you know how it performs.
James Loniak –
I’m rehoming and improving my son’s Savage MkII F. with new stock and threaded adapter for attachments.
The Kaw Vallet Precision linear comp is solidly made with a low gloss uniform blue/black finish and will “crown” the barrel, soon to be held by a Boyds stock.
My order was handled start-to-finish in just a couple days.
travis tyler –
Order was fast and the compensator fit like charm, definitely going to order again.Exact product I was looking for.
Joe Biden –
Compensator shipped fast. Perfect match for my Scorpion S2.
michael ruppert –
Kaw Valley is the best. Work great as advertised and have been using them for several years. Really cuts down the noise to you and other shooters compared to a traditional radial flash hider.
Mike Gibson –
Everything I have purchased from Kaw Valley Precision has been top quality and the Linear Comp is no exception. Highly recommended!
wmtelle –
These KVP Linear comps function as designed. Can’t ask for more than that! Reduced (eliminated muzzle flash), reduced apparent recoil (muzzle jump) and most importantly, directed muzzle blast away from the shooter thereby reducing perceived sound. A win win all around!
The pistol Linear comp is even more effective than the rifle Linear comp and that is saying a lot!
wmtelle said that….
Ken Mrotek –
Fit, finish, quality excellent
Dallas Peterson –
Excellent on line experience, rapid response and order/delivery, and a nicely designed product that works as advertised.
David Hague –
Ive purchased two comps from Kaw Valley Precision..the first an XL Slim for my 9mm
and more recently one for my new 10mm carbine.
Great customer service..I bought the wrong size comp for my 10mm and an exchange was no problem. They responded to my questions quickly.
A. L –
Fast delivery + top quality. Worth every penny
Steve –
Completely satisfied with the comp, arrived quickly too!
Jaysson Funkhouser –
Prior to purchasing this muzzle brake, I had no idea what a linear muzzle brake was. This thing is awesome. So much quieter (shooting 556 bolt action rifle). Still need ear protection, but if I forget to bring them with me, I can still shoot and not go deaf. Oh yeah, basically zero recoil. Awesome purchase. Money well spent.
George –
Good product, good price, fast shipping, why can’t everyone do that?
D –
Screwed it on no problem. Haven’t shot it at all but the threads were good.
M S –
I purchased this brake due to the last one I bought, though CA compliant, was so loud it made people leave next to me. This brake puts most of the noise down range and makes others around you happy.
Sal –
Product is great, shipping was just right.
Thank you
Anthony Ashman –
Kaw Valley produces American made outstanding firearm accessories without question! Cathy , office manager, is beyond customer service orientated! Professional, friendly and knowledge!
Mary –
Thank you for building quality products!
Alan Keuler –
Ordered a comp for 450 Bushmaster and it came with different thread than my barrel. I sent it back with RGA and had correct unit within a week. Good Job!
David Billings –
Haven’t been able to test this compensator as the build is still ongoing thanks to Bidenomics, but I recognize excellent engineering and Kaw Valley’s superior customer service.
Doug H –
I have not tried them yet, but they were recommended by a good friend.
Thank you for your smooth and fast service

Love the compensator!
Jake –
Does good so far I don’t get that ring in my ears no more and I had to use double ear protection on a 7.5 ar that is chambered in 7.62 x39 now I am able to use my plugs and shoot more comfortable does keep muzzle down puts more of the recoil in the shoulder and does help with the grouping some

I ordered late on a Friday evening and had my KVP Linear Compensators on the following Wednesday. I have installed them but not had a chance to try them yet. They look awesome and I look forward to seeing how they sound. Thank you Kaw Valley Precision.
Backpacker Dan –
Looks great and works as advertised. Excellent for redirecting muzzle noise down range. Only downside is ZERO flash reduction. Blinding at night looking though a scope.
