The Radian Afterburner + Ramjet combo brings two precision components together for pistols that demand better control and accuracy. This system pairs a fluted, match-grade 416R stainless barrel with a compact micro-compensator, engineered specifically for the Glock 17 Gen5 in 9mm. Whether you're focused on taming recoil for faster shooting or refining your accuracy, this combo delivers noticeable performance improvements in a package compact enough for real-world carry.
The Afterburner is machined from hardened stainless steel and enhanced with Radianite coating, a proprietary surface treatment that boosts hardness while reducing friction and corrosion. At only 0.47 inches in length, this micro-compensator reduces felt recoil while maintaining compatibility with standard holsters. The angled front faces help guide the gun smoothly into holsters during draws, addressing a common concern with muzzle devices. This compact design achieves significant recoil reduction without the added length that makes traditional compensators impractical for carry use.
Radian's INTRA-LOK system eliminates the need for threaded barrels or permanent modifications. The threadless Ramjet barrel features an angled V-groove on its underside that interfaces with a simple tapered locking screw. This taper-lock principle perfectly times the compensator during installation and locks it securely to the muzzle without requiring Loctite or thread locker. Installation takes minutes: field strip your pistol, swap in the Ramjet barrel, slide the Afterburner compensator into place, and tighten the locking screw. Removal for cleaning is equally straightforward, making routine maintenance quick and pain-free.
Both components are constructed from premium materials chosen specifically for the pressures and heat found at a pistol's muzzle. The Ramjet barrel is machined from hardened 416R stainless steel, a material purpose-built for precision barrels that must hold tight tolerances through thousands of rounds. The hardened stainless steel Afterburner compensator combines the same Radianite coating for a finish that resists erosion from muzzle blast and provides years of reliable use. The bronze finish provides a subtle aesthetic while the hardened construction ensures long-term durability.
The combo adds just 0.47 inches to your Glock 17 Gen5's slide length, making it compatible with standard Glock 17 holsters and allowing compatibility with Glock 34 holsters. The tapered design of the Afterburner compensator is specifically engineered to allow smooth holstering without snagging. If your current holster fits a stock Glock 17, it should work fine with this combo.
Installation is straightforward enough for most users but does require field-stripping your pistol. You simply swap out the barrel, slide the compensator in place, and tighten the locking screw. While professional installation is an option if you prefer, the INTRA-LOK system is designed for user-friendly installation without special tools beyond the included TORX bit.
The system is engineered to reduce felt recoil, though exact reduction varies based on ammunition weight and individual perception. The Afterburner is most effective when paired with 124-grain and heavier 9mm loads. Users report noticeably faster follow-up shots and flatter shooting compared to a stock barrel setup, with improved control over muzzle rise during rapid fire.
Yes. The INTRA-LOK system allows you to unscrew the tapered locking pin and remove the Afterburner compensator from the barrel in seconds without disturbing the barrel itself. This makes routine cleaning quick and simple, and you can swap the compensator back on just as easily.
