Linear Compensator HP22 - M24 x 1.5 (AK74)
G. I. S. (CZE)

The HP22 linear compensator from Czech manufacturer Global Import Service is a muzzle device designed to suppress the muzzle flash and acoustic effects of a gunshot.

The materials used and the simple, functional design ensure ease of use and a long service life.

The HP is primarily a means of hearing protection for the shooter and those around them. Due to its design and compact dimensions, it is not a suppressor per se, but in some respects it can successfully serve as a substitute. From a legal standpoint, the HP is a freely available muzzle device.

The noise of the shot and the gases escaping from the barrel are directed forward, significantly limiting their effect on the shooter and those nearby. As the escaping gases pass through the body of the HP, they also partially cool down, reducing their velocity at the muzzle. The result is a reduction in acoustic pressure exposure. Although this reduction is only a matter of a few dB at the shooter's ear, the subjective perception of this effect is very pronounced and increases further with distance.

The HP can be an effective tool for addressing problems associated with excessive noise in the vicinity of shooting ranges.

GIS HP linear compensators weigh approximately half as much and are roughly half the overall length of conventional suppressors designed for the corresponding caliber.

They are easy to clean and do not need to be removed from the barrel during cleaning. There is therefore no need for complex quick-release systems that are prone to fouling.

The HP design does not restrict the flow of propellant gases as significantly as a suppressor does, meaning the amount of gas that returns back through the barrel is considerably lower.

No special tools are required to disassemble and clean the HP. A simple universal maintenance tool for the HP is included in the package.

GIS HP linear compensators were developed primarily for use by armed forces to reduce acoustic pressure exposure during firing, particularly when shooting as part of a team or in enclosed spaces. They also effectively conceal the shooter's position by suppressing the muzzle flash and sound signature of the shot.

GIS HP linear compensators improve weapon handling during dynamic shooting and automatic fire. The HP design does not restrict the flow of propellant gases as significantly as a suppressor, so the amount of gas returning back through the barrel is considerably lower. It does not shift the mean point of impact the way a suppressor does.

The design of the front face allows a weapon equipped with a GIS HP to be used in an emergency to break glass in windows and doors during forced entry into buildings and vehicles. It also prevents larger debris from entering the barrel.

The front face and diffuser assembly can easily be replaced with a color-coded BLANC module, with which the HP functions as an adapter for blank firing ammunition.

GIS HP linear compensators are easy to install and maintain. They are resistant to damage and have a long service life.

They do not need to be removed from the weapon during cleaning. Only the front face with diffuser is unscrewed. No special tools are required for disassembly and maintenance. They consist of only two parts.

They are half the length and weight of suppressors made from the same material.

From a legal standpoint, they are not classified as a weapon. Their storage and transport are therefore not subject to any special rules or restrictions.
