Vintage 22s's Review of Faxon Firearms EXOS-525 Pistol Compensator for SIG P365/P365 XL

I'm happy overall with the Faxon EXOS-525 comp. Although not the shortest comp available, the recoil reduction is notable and it still works well with my existing holsters, not causing discomfort while carrying. +P rounds have minimal effect on recoil as the comp works better with more powerful rounds. Follow up shots are notably faster with a threaded barrel and comp vs the factory barrel.
Although I experienced zero malfunctions with 115gr, 124gr, or 147gr ammo with the factory recoil spring, the ejection is very weak, especially with 115gr loads. I run a light and an optic on my p365 XL. I would not recommend a comp unless the recoil spring is also tuned to ensure reliability. I found even with the lightest recoil spring available (12 lbs) ejection is still rather anemic unless 147gr cartridges are used. I have not been able to find a 10 lb recoil spring for the 365 XL, as it would likely be best for my combination to ensure reliability with all cartridge weights.
Pros:
  • Notable improvement in recoil
  • Fits well to the firearm
  • Higher velocity given +0.6" barrel length
  • Much faster follow up shots
Cons:
  • Barrel length decreases CCW ease
  • Recoil spring kit should be installed to ensure reliability
Best Used for:
  • Improved recoil management
Would Recommend: Yes
