This information was compiled from a 2002 archived version of the Dan Wesson Firearms website. I’m not sure if all of these calibers and versions were manufactured and are only included here as a reference.
The Dan Wesson Firearms Compensator System relieves up to 61% of felt recoil and muzzle jump, depending on the type of load being used, with no reduction in accuracy or velocity–all of the big bore performance without the punishment.
