I have been down this road. I purchased a used one for almost nothing out of a junk bin at a gun show. I know why it was there in the first place.

I had no noticable reduction from it. Not only was the exit hole huge relative to the diameter of the bullet, but the "ports" on the top of the thing were comaparitively very narrow. I have no doubt that relatively little of the exiting gas was vented through these slots.

Conversely, I have used good compensators and definitely noticed a difference in muzzle rise and a reduced time back to target.

I have Seen one bushing comp that was more like a full size one in terms of the ports, but the exit whole dilema would still exist. These are even more expensive than the regular bushing compensators and would probably not be that much better.
