Yes, the Radian Ramjet + Afterburner system is designed for toolless installation. It replaces the stock barrel and attaches to the muzzle, simplifying the upgrade process for P365 owners.

What is the benefit of using high-speed footage for firearm recoil analysis?

High-speed footage, like the 240 fps used in the comparison, allows for a detailed, frame-by-frame analysis of the firearm's behavior during recoil. This captures subtle movements like muzzle flip and slide action that are difficult to perceive at normal speeds.
