This is the correct answer. Compensator, quick detach device, thread protector, all ok. No need to weld on anything unless you need the muzzle device to bring barrel length up to 16", for example a 14.5" barrel + muzzle device = 16.1". In that case you would need to weld the device in a specific manner described in the regs.
