Opinions on the Parker Mountain Machine P-10 C Compensator?

Been eyeballing this for a couple days. Does anyone have experience with one? Will it affect the reliability of the gun?

Anyone know how it compares to the Primary Machine ones? http://primarymachine.com/cz-p-10c-micro-stealth-comp/ or http://primarymachine.com/cz-p-10c-stealth-comp/

does it come with the barrel?

I already have the threaded barrel and it's made to work with it.

They?re pretty solid setups I have one for my c, haven?t put it on yet because I?m waiting on my S and a threaded barrel. LOOKS LIKE I may be able to fit an S slide inside a C frame with that Comp so if that?s true

Bump on this I'm very interested in this comp, they make some models with multi ports but the p10 comp only has 1, I think that's one of the reasons the primary machine one is so effective because it has 4 holes cut in it, however I hate set screws on my comp and would vastly prefer the pmm type of mounting style. Any other opinions out there?

Do a little digging on their mounting. It's not all it's cracked up to be and a lot of people are having issues with it. You can use the Primary Machine comp without set screws and it will never come loose if it's that much of an issue. Make sure barrel threads are degreased and use all the red loctitie included with it and it will never come off until you want it to.

What do you recommend to clean/degrease the barrel threads? I just installed my pm one back on my p09 a few days ago by cleaning the threads with rubbing alcohol, letting it air dry then coating it in rocksett threading the device on, putting in the one set screw that I could (long story) and then hitting it with a blow dryer and letting it cure for 24 hours

Non-chlorinated brake cleaner.

Brake cleaner or acetone. But rubbing alcohol is better than nothing. Most important thing is using all the red loctite on the barrel threads. The set screws are NOT meant to be the main thing securing the comp. That's why people strip them. They over tighten them and use tons of blue locite thinking that's the main thing securing the comp. It isn't.

You could literally not install the set screws at all and the comp will never come loose if your threads were properly cleaned and you sued enough red locitie.

When ready to remove, simply heat it with an open flame (even a cigarette lighter is sufficient) for 10-15 seconds. That will heat the red loctite enough for the comp to screw right off without damaging it at all. Also, the comp basically never has to be removed. For cleaning - simply push the barrel through the front the slide with the comp still on. You can clean the bore, breach face, etc without ever removing the comp.

Long story short:
- Ensure barrel threads are 100% clean
- Use ALL red loctite we include on barrel threads
- Do NOT over apply blue locite to set screws (You can use NONE actually.)
- Do NOT over tighten set screws

One of my personal P-09's has had one of the very first 07/09 comps we ever made on it for almost 6,000 rounds now. I never even installed the set screws and the comp has never came loose.

What about 2620 loctite

It would be fine, but the higher temp of 2620 over regular red 262 is unnecessary and you'd have to get it that much hotter to remove the comp.
When the threads are clean correctly and the proper amount of 262 is used, we've not had a single person complain about a comp coming loose with 262. And we've sold thousands and thousands of comps.

Absolutely. I'd like to install the comp here for you. Not to say you're doing anything wrong. But if we install it here knowing we cleaned the threads properly, etc and it still comes loose we can start to address another issue.
