Installing a Morini Compensator in a Pardini

Post by tqb »

Hello,

Is it possible to remove the Front sight holder of a Pardini PGP 75 in order to install a Morini Compensator?

Thank You.

If I remember correctly, all you have to do is remove the front sight blade. There is a set screw down inside the hole for the sight blade that I _think_ clamps the sight block to the barrel. They show this arrangement in the manual, but in a separate drawing from the exploded view. Oddly enough, the set screw isn't shown in the exploded diagram, and I can't find it on the parts list either.

It's also possible that the screw shown is used to set the height of the front blade. In which case there may be a second screw underneath that locks the sight block to the barrel.

What is the status of your modification? Did it go on?

If so, did you get the performance you were looking for?

I installed a Morini compensator on my Pardini K22. Taking off the front sight was easy. I had to fabricate a bushing since the Pardini barrel OD is less than Morini compensator ID.
