Who This Is For
This compensator system is ideal for Glock 19 Gen 5 owners who demand real, measurable recoil reduction without adding bulk to their pistol.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Afterburner work without the Ramjet barrel, or do I need both?
The Afterburner compensator is designed to be used in conjunction with the Radian Ramjet threaded barrel — the two components work as a matched system. The 44% recoil reduction figure is achieved when both are used together with 115gr ammunition. While the Afterburner mounts to the Ramjet barrel via the INTRA-LOK taper-lock system, you will need the Ramjet barrel installed to use this compensator correctly.
Will the Afterburner Ramjet system fit in my existing Glock 19 holster?
Holster compatibility will vary depending on your specific holster model. The Afterburner's angled front face is designed to aid in holstering and reduce snagging, but because it does add a small amount of length to the muzzle end of the pistol, some standard Glock 19 holsters may not accommodate the compensator. We recommend checking with your holster manufacturer or looking for holsters specifically designed for compensated Glock 19 setups.
What ammunition works best with the Afterburner Ramjet system?
Radian Weapons rates the 44% recoil reduction figure using 115gr 9mm ammunition, which is the optimal load for maximizing the compensator's effectiveness. Standard-pressure 115gr loads provide the right gas volume and velocity to actuate the compensator ports efficiently. Heavier loads such as 124gr or 147gr can still be used, but may produce slightly different results. Overpressure (+P or +P+) ammunition should only be used if your barrel is rated for it — consult Radian Weapons' documentation for full ammunition compatibility guidance.
