One exception to the use of a special lightweight bolt was the Colt Service Ace, offered as a complete pistol or as a conversion kit for the M1911.

A muzzle brake works by diverting gases perpendicularly relative to the barrel to reduce felt recoil. The greater the gas volume, or the pressure that gas is at, the more force the compensator or muzzle brake creates. Competitors could "feed" a compensator more gases than comparable .38 Super loads. However, the muzzle blast also increased ...
