Important Update: Improved Design for Your VP Armory Beretta PX4 Compact Light-Mounted Compensator with Streamlight TLR-7 Sub

It had been brought to our attention that there is a potential fatigue mode in the design of our first generation Beretta PX4 Compact Light-Mounted Compensator with Streamlight TLR-7 Sub. At Vantage Point Armory, we take the quality and safety of our products very seriously and have taken appropriate measures to address this issue.

The original 4-40 screw with the TLR-7 Sub was too weak, leading to potential failures under pressure and recoil. This could cause the front of the compensator to bend forward, possibly resulting in baffle strikes.

Improvements in Gen 2 Design:

Replaced the original 4-40 screw with a stronger 5-40 screw, approximately 25% stronger.
The new American-made holocrome screw fits perfectly into the insert, eliminating any wiggle room and providing better stability under recoil.
Added a Belleville serrated washer to prevent the screw from backing out, ensuring a more secure fit.
Modified the gap between the muzzle and the front of the compensator for better aesthetics and functionality.

These changes have been rigorously tested and proven effective, ensuring reliability and durability without affecting holster compatibility. As part of our commitment to providing you with the best possible products, any customer who had purchased a Gen 1 model has been sent a replacement compensator free of charge.

Important: Please discard your Gen 1 compensator. The new screw is thicker and will only work with the Gen 2 compensator model. We are not responsible for any issues that may arise from continued use of the Gen 1 model.

Note: Langdon Tactical Technology (LTT) is aware of these updates and has worked with us to ensure you receive your replacement compensator promptly.

Transform your shooting experience with precision and control. The Vantage Point Armory Compensator combines innovative technology with a patent-pending design, offering unparalleled functionality and adaptability for any situation.

Minimize Recoil / Reliable Compensation: Minimize recoil and maintain control shot after shot. During firing of the weapon, the attached compensator funnels the gas from the propellant through the ports machined into the compensator. This acts the same as other compensators on the market. However, because this system is not attached to the slide or barrel it does not inhibit, change or impede the cycling action of the pistol.

Enhance Stability: Ehanced stability and target reacquisition for unparalleled accuracy

Rugged and Reliable: Designed to withstand intense shooting sessions. Drop tests have proven the Vantage Point Compensator to be as rugged as it is effective.

Interfaces with the Pistol via a Weapon-Mounted Light: Ideal for those seeking enhanced performance with a weapon light:

Holster Selection: Any universal holster (e.g., PHLster Floodlight) or custom holster that normally accepts a standard frame-mounted accessory such as a Surefire X300U-A light or Streamlite TLR-7 will fit with no modifications to the holster because the accessory remains in the same location as when mounted using the original rails that originally came with the accessory. Learn more about holster compatibility here.

Standoff Device: When in a situation where the muzzle of the firearm is pushed up against its intended target, the pistol will not go out of battery and therefore it will still be able to fire with the compensator in place.

Ease of Cleaning: Barrel-mounted compensators need to be disassembled and unthreaded to be cleaned which can be a hassle and time consuming to re-time the device. This unit can just be unclamped from the rail by disengaging the locking lug on the accessory for easy field stripping and cleaning of the firearm and compensator.

Price vs. Competition: Since the Vantage Point Compensator mounts to the accessory rail, there is no need for expensive aftermarket barrels.

50 State Legal: Since no threaded barrel is required, our compensator is legal in all 50 states.

Sleek Design: The designer has matched the lines of each individual slide to the compensator, resulting in a streamlined device.

Made in USA: Crafted with precision from premium materials in the USA.

Carefully read and follow the instructions below to avoid damaging your compensator and firearm. Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury to the shooter and damage to the compensator and firearm. As the Customer, you acknowledge and agree that it is solely your responsibility for complying with these procedures and checking your compensator regularly. We are not responsible for damage to the compensator or firearm.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Assembling the TLR7 Sub PX4 Compact Compensator:

Before you begin, ensure you have the following:

VP Armory Beretta PX4 Storm Compact Light-Mounted Compensator (Streamlight TLR7-Sub)
- 5-40 Center Screw and Belleville Serrated Washer (included with Compensator)
Streamlight TLR7-Sub Weapon Light
5/64” Allen key
Torque wrench (optional but recommended)
Beretta PX4 Storm Compact
2 Hex-Head Screws (Included with Light)
- All screws must be de-greased prior to installation. We recommend the use of isopropyl alcohol or acohol wipes.
Loctite
- All screws must hav ea medium-strength, medium-to-high temperature threadlocker applied in accordance with their manufacturer's instructions. We reocmmend a small appliaction of Green Loctite 290 on each screw. Blue Loctite 246, 242, or 248, are also acceptable if you intent to remove the compensator more regularly, but these products are more likely to loosen under an aggressive firing schedule.

Verify the Correct Light:

- Ensure you have the required light for the assembly, specifically the TLR-7 Streamlight Sub variant designed for a 1913 rail system.
  - THE TLR-7 Sub 1913S is the ONLY compatible model for this compensator - the full size TLR-7 and TLR-7X will NOT work with this compensator.

2. Disassemble the TLR7 Sub:

- Begin by removing the thumb screw from the sliding rail of the TLR7 Sub. Thumb screw that comes with light is not needed.

3. Set aside the Correct Insert:

- Set aside the #4 insert included wiht the TLR-7 set - this is required for the assembly.

4. Seperate the Rails:

Utilizing a 5/64” Allen wrench, unscrew the screws holding the separate rail from the stationary rail.
Keep the screws and additional rails for potential future use.

5. Prepare the Firearm:

Ensure the firearm is unloaded before proceeding.
Slide the compensator onto the firearm, ensuring a snug fit and leaving a slight gap.
Bring the slide home gently to align the compensator properly.

6. Insert the #4 Insert:

Turn the #4 insert upside down and place it into the rail, ensuring the boss portion is correctly positioned.
Adjust the compensator to the appropriate location to allow the insert to fit, ensuring it resembles the desired configuration.

7. Attach the Light:

Align the TLR7 Streamlight with the compensator and carefully secure it in place.
Adjust as needed to ensure proper alignment and fit between the light and compensator.

8. Attach the Center Screw:

- Apply Loctite to the center screw and ensure the washer is correctly positioned within the designated pocket.
  - - Insert the Washer and Center Screw and then tighten the Center Screw 10 inch-pounds using a torque wrench. Remove any excess residue.
    - DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN

9. Secure with Screws and Loctite:

Apply Loctite to the screws and carefully align them with the corresponding holes.
We recommend using a torque wrench.

Apply 5-6 inch-pounds from a torque wrench to firmly secure the screws in place.

If you are not using a torque wrench, gradually tighten the screws until they are fully seated at the bottom, avoiding cross-threading.

Then tighten an additional 1/8 of a turn to ensure they are fully seated and secure.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN

Note: The use of Loctite is essential to ensure the screws do not back out over time with firing.

10. Allow for Drying Time:

Allow the assembly to dry for at least a day to ensure the Loctite sets properly.
Witness mark all three screws with an oil-based paint pen for future reference to detect any loosening.

1. 1. The first time the firearm is fired with the compensator installed, the screws should be checked after the first few shots to insure it has been installed properly.
  2. Regularly check your witness marks to ensure that the screws have not loosened. If they loosen during firing, re-torque them immediately.
  3. If any of the attachment screws become damaged or loose, do not attempt to fire the handgun with the compensator attached. You will need to replace the screw.

11. Final Inspection:

Perform a final inspection to ensure the proper assembly of the compensator and verify its secure attachment to the firearm.

PLEASE NOTE:

Will not reduce slide velocity or induce reliability issues
DO NOT USE WITHOUT THE PISTOL LIGHT ATTACHED TO THE COMPENSATOR. The Pistol Light is required to attach the compensator to the gun. YOU MUST ensure the compensator is properly seated and installed prior to live fire. Failure to do so can result in damage to the compensator that is not repairable under the warranty.

Upgrading your handgun with a compensator requires a higher level of maintenance and care. Ensuring that it is installed correctly and checked frequently is critical for proper function and safety.

It is possible to experience a failure with the Vantage Point Armory PX4 compact compensator that results from a broken or loose center tensioning or attachment screw. If the attachment screws become loose during firing, or breaks due to improper installation, it will cause the light body to droop downward, dropping the recoil lug out of engagement with the rail.

If this is not identified by the user, the compensator will slide forward with each shot, until it travels far enough down the rail and is able to bend downwards into the line of the bore. If this happens, you will get a baffle strike on the compensator.

THESE FAILURES ARE PREVENTABLE and AVOIDABLE.

Results may vary depending on the handler. Vantage Point Armory is not in any way responsible for the misuse of firearms or firearm parts/accessories or the results of such misuse. We highly recommend gun owners inspect parts and accessories frequently. This will help mitigate the possibility of accidents and malfunctions.
