TANDEMKROSS "Game Changer" .22LR Handgun Compensator — Black
Add to wish list
Stay on target faster and elevate your rimfire shooting experience with the TANDEMKROSS "Game Changer" .22LR Handgun Compensator (Black). Specially engineered for .22LR rimfire pistols and rifles, this lightweight muzzle device redirects expanding propellant gases upward to significantly reduce muzzle flip and felt recoil—allowing you to keep your sights locked on target for lightning-fast follow-up shots.
Crafted in the USA from durable, lightweight aircraft-grade aluminum and finished in a anodized black coating, the Game Changer blends seamlessly with standard barrel profiles. Its dual dual-port design is optimized specifically for the pressure profile of .22LR ammunition. Featuring a standard 1/2x28 thread pitch, it installs easily onto factory threaded barrels—making it a favorite performance upgrade for speed shooting competitions, plinking, and tactical rimfire setups.
Key Features:
-
Muzzle Rise Control: Strategically angled top ports channel gases upward to combat muzzle climb, speeding up target re-acquisition during rapid fire.
-
Rimfire-Optimized Geometry: Designed specifically around .22LR pressure dynamics to deliver maximum gas redirection without adding unnecessary weight to the barrel.
-
Lightweight Aircraft Aluminum: Machined from high-strength aluminum to keep front-end weight minimal, preserving balance and quick transitions.
-
Durable Anodized Finish: Hard-coat anodized black surface resists carbon fouling, abrasion, and harsh solvent exposure.
-
Universal 1/2x28 Threading: Threads directly onto standard 1/2"-28 TPI threaded rimfire barrels for broad pistol and rifle compatibility.
-
Easy Maintenance: Low-profile geometry cleans easily with standard gun care solvents and rimfire carbon removers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a crush washer or timing shims to install this compensator?
Because rimfire compensators produce low recoil forces, a rubber O-ring or thread-locking compound is typically used to hand-tighten and align the ports without over-torquing the barrel threads.
Will this compensator make my .22LR pistol louder?
Muzzle devices redirect gas and sound waves outward to the sides, which can slightly increase perceived sound levels to bystanders next to you, but noise levels to the shooter remain very manageable.
Does this part require an FFL transfer?
No. Muzzle accessories, compensators, and thread protectors are non-serialized firearm components and ship directly to your home address where permitted.
Does it affect cycling or reliability with target ammo?
The Game Changer is lightweight by design so it does not add excess reciprocating mass, preserving reliable cycling with standard velocity and high-velocity .22LR ammunition.
