Radian Afterburner and Ramjet Review- Tactical Tuesday

- The Radian® AFTERBURNER™ + RAMJET™ combo provide unprecedented recoil reduction and match grade accuracy in a concealed carry package. The thread-less barrel design allows for effortless install/removal for cleaning.
The AFTERBURNER™ compensator is machined from hardened 17- 4 SS and the RAMJET™ barrel from hardened 416R SS; both are enhanced with a DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating. This combination achieves low friction, high hardness, and high corrosion resistance, making overall durability and erosion from muzzle blast a non-issue.
The INTRA-LOK® mounting system uses the taper lock principle; a tapered locking screw interfaces with an angled V-groove on the underside of the barrel. This perfectly times the compensator as it locks down onto the upper barrel profile on the muzzle end of the barrel.
INTRA-LOK® allows the user to simply slide the compensator over the barrel, insert and tighten the locking screw, making for a simple and repeatable installation process. This system allows the user to easily remove the barrel from the slide for cleaning.
The Radian RAMJET is a match-grade pistol barrel that delivers an accurate and reliable weapon system. The fluted barrel features a gas sealing chamber as well as a loaded chamber indicator.
The RAMJET™ barrel is hardened 416R SS, enhanced with a DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating. This combination achieves low friction, high hardness, and high corrosion resistance, making overall durability and erosion from muzzle blast a non-issue.
Installed onto a Glock™ G19™, the AFTERBURNER™ + RAMJET™ combo increases the overall length of the slide to a G17 ® allowing compatibility with all G17 holsters. Angled front faces on the AFTERBURNER aid in holstering.

I know it works well but with the lack of grip/recoil control the slo-mo early on didn’t show much reduction.
My walther ppq with talon grips and apex flat trigger shoots very fast. I don't think it would make that much of a difference
That’s simply because they lack muzzle control while firing fast. I have one on my 19x and on video stays completely flat with the ramjet+afterburner. It’s on my channel as a short
So they went for a similar concept to sigs 365x-macro.
kinda. Both compensate their pistols, but the method of compensation is fairly different
I was pleasantly surprised with how well this works. It definitely reduces felt recoil. You for sure notice when you’re running bill drills. I have one for my 19x and have 1000 plus rounds through it with no stoppages.
Agreed, it really shines when you start trying to run the gun with purpose
Are you using radian springs or do you run your stock Glock spring??
@@campsoupkitchen2645 Factory Glock Springs
I just ran 200 rds through mine. It definitely felt different. I got better groups.
love to hear it!
I got one and used it at the range twice, in a 2 day class "tactical" style class and in Jedi's Modern Samurai Project's 3 day class, and in a USPSA match, and I can't really tell if there is less recoil. I'm sure there is some, but 40% I can't say I felt that. I'm sure there is some reduction in recoil, just because of, well, science, haha, but for $400, I would not get it again. Also, I had a lot of reliability problems that I never had before, so I had to buy the recoils spring set for an extra $100.
My final advice is, if you are super recoil sensitive, and have $500 bucks that you don't need, get it. If you just want to shoot better, I suggest buying ammo and taking a class with a great instructor that you have researched and vetted.
This Radian device looks cool but at the same time gimmicky. I agree with your notion, if you have deep enough pockets to splurge $500 away then by all means. If you want to learn how to shoot your weapon "better" then it would be wiser to invest that money into more ammo and training, now that's money well spent......Lets keep in mind, long before there were things like laser sights, night sights, red dot sights and yes even compensators, expert shooters were hitting bullseye(s) with modestly tuned firearms and iron sights.....With that being said, if this device were under $200, I would be tempted to try one out.
@@es9415 Yea, I ran it in a few more classes and matches and I'm selling it. I can't even feel the difference with it or without it. And I can't CCW it because I don't trust it. I'll sell it and buy some ammo.
@@jerdog333I have a Walther PPQ with talen grips and an apex flat trigger. It is also the most flippy gun I have but it is super accurate and super fast. The radiant ramjet may give me faster split times but only if my skills were on par with workd class shooters. I have a p320 spectra that has a built in comp yeah a little flatter but not by much.
My everyday carry is gen 5 glock 20. It's felt recoil is softer than a 9mm and more accurate not to mention Shoots flatter and has much more stopping power than 9mm, 40 etc. I have plenty of 9mm pistols no need gor me to dump $400 just for a dumb barell and comp
Agreed! Most shooting deficiencies is a software problem rather than hardware. People who suck at shooting and have some $$$ to spend will most likely get this - they will stick suck!
I was at a 2-day tactical/defensive class. One of the assistant instructors/support staff had a Radian and was raving about it... He still cannot outshoot me, in my near stock Glock 17 Gen 3 (only changes were sights and grip tape)... Figures!
@@rodralig my gen 5 glock 20 with stock trigger using full power loads is very accurate and recoil us stout but can easily do double taps
Firearms + Ducati = INSTANT SUBSCRIPTION 😁👍🏾
Their G17 version comp is a regular round unlike the tear drop 1st gen G19. I would have baught the G17 too.
My only complaint about the Aterburner and Ramjet system is it causes stove-piping when used in my 3rd Gen G-19 with standard pressure 115 grain ammo. After switching the standard 17 lb. recoil spring in my G-19 to a lighter 14 lb. spring, the stove-piping issue went away.
Since making this video, we have heard of people having to do similar things when running standard pressure ammo
@@modernwarriorsutit's why not good for a carry gun
I gave away a g19 that I had a ton of money in. I could never shoot that gun well. I moved on to to CZ’s and love them. Then got some other fun guns. To the point, I recently shot a g45 with all of the goodies including this comp barrel set up. Wow! It will be my next gun. Groups were better than I can shoot and it was a lot of fun. Note. The comp gets your gun dirty quickly. If you are shooting a few hundred rounds at the range bring some clip.
Clp
Patiently waiting for the slimline series
we were stoked to see them at shot show
Cool Beans. Never did mention if there were any failures or anything after tuning with springs. I assume not, and it is a good to go concealed carry option.
In the gun we were shooting we were running the standard springs from glock. As for a carry option yes, it would be useful. It may be a tad large for some people, but it definitely makes the gun more easy to shoot
@@modernwarriorsutsome reported it would misfeed with 115gr but 124 was fine. Getting their rsa with a 13lb spring should take care of that but the stock trigger sucks. The overwatch precision is good but then spending close to $1200 for a g19x
Can’t find these anywhere lol.
That's some nice scenery. Predator greet.
My 19x jammed twice with the ramjet, took the Holosun 507 off and didn’t jam. Could it be the spring?
it could be. You may need to adjust the spring for a different weight or try a different ammo.
When will it be available for the Glock 43x?
Does anyone know when they'll release this for the Glock 17?
I put this on my G45 and it fits my holsters I didn’t have to buy g17 holsters
It will in some cases depending on the holster design.
I have a shadow systems mr920,,, which gen of Glock do I choose when purchasing the ram jet?? My options are gen 3,4,&5
We believe its compatible with the gen 3. But we would recommend checking with Shadow Systems directly
@@modernwarriorsut thanks a bunch
Since it’s always out of stock, I guess I have to pay $600 and up for one on eBay.

I just ordered one a few days ago on Brownells
Radian had them in stock last week I picked up the kit for 460
I thought the whole reason for the 9mm was the reduced recoil. Now we have people that can't control a 9mm?? WTF??
It's not that you they can't control it, but that it reduces even more making it even better of a handgun. Who doesn't want to shoot faster and better.
How is that optic mounted on the Glock 19x in this video
it was custom milled
what barrel generation for the 19x? 4 or 5? thanks
5
What model Glock and what optic are you using to do this review in your store?
it was a glock 19x that had been custom cut to accept a delta point
What type of ammo is this compensator most effective with? I've never given much thought to 9mm comps based on the lower recoil but based on your video this seems to make a noticeable difference at least for some ammo.
This one is designed to get the greatest reduction in recoil with 115gr
I run mag tech 115 grain and my I have the g19 with afterburner and ramjet and compressor if runs flawlessly
Need more Aleks content.
agreed!
Will this work with a PSA Dagger?
Not sure, we havent ever seen one in person.
Skip to 2:03 to skip the fluff
It makes such a difference on my G19 [Gen 5]. You won't be sorry. LMAO ... "Behind enemy lines." Why I moved from Washington State to Wyoming; soon to move to Idaho. NEVER AGAIN WILL I LIVE IN A LIBERAL CONTROLLED STATE.
I’ll buy a Glock one of these days just so I have access to all the accessories available. Will Radian make this for my Shield Plus?
They are fun to customize thats for sure.
I stopped watching the video because of your asking for subscribers. I’m tired of it.
Man why are these things almost always out of stock 😂
haha because they work!
@@modernwarriorsut just went to radians website they got em in stock again 😎
I came for the ramjet, but now I'm just curious how much that plate carrier, extra AR mags and coms also increased your pistol performance? Lol who's shooting at u? And who u talking to on that headset anyway? It's pulled right up to your mouth like u might have to call in support at any moment. U can just flip that up out of the way in case u didn't know 👌
He's training/shooting competition, something you clearly know nothing about Mr. Punisher Skull Cool Guy 🤣
