Ported Barrel VS Compensator??
This video compares the velocity loss between ported barrels and compensators on various firearms, as well as the impact of barrel length. The presenter, Mr. Madness, uses a Garmin X1 Pro chronograph to measure the feet per second of 115-grain 9mm Blazer ammunition fired from a CZ Checkmate (5-inch barrel with comp), CZ Shadow 2 (4.9-inch ported barrel), CZ Shadow 2 (4.9-inch factory barrel), CZ PCR (4.9-inch factory barrel), and Glock 43 (3-inch barrel). The tests indicate a slight velocity loss with ported barrels compared to factory barrels and a more noticeable decrease with shorter barrel lengths.
