Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Calvary Arms Compensator .. Help?
Posted: 8/22/2003 4:04:33 PM EDT
Hi,

I'm making a shooter out of an M16A2, making it ar15 post ban legal. I removed the flash hider and I'm putting the Calvary Arms Compensator on in it's place.

The compensator screws on OK, but it doesn't align correctly. I'm assuming the cuts in the comp should be up and the pin hole should be under the barrel. Mine lines up with the pin hole up and the cut's on the comp under the barrel.

Any good suggestions on how to correct would be welcome? Anyone else run into this?

Thanks

Get a Peel Washer, then you can index comp.

Peel washers are a pain.  They'll work, but their much more difficult and time-consuming to deal with.  Instead, get a CRUSH washer.  You simply tighten the FS against it until you start compressing the washer, then keep turning until the FS lines up the way you want, and stop there.  No muss, no fuss.
