Timing my PWS Triad muzzle device?

[mx0317]

I was recently had a PWS Triad installed but I'm not sure if the gun shop timed it correctly. The last step of the instructions says that, "The muzzle device is timed properly when the PWS Logo is at the 12 o'clock position in relation to the rifle." But below the instructions it says, "Note: the flat wrench flats should be at the 12 and 6 o'clock position." The way the shop installed it was the latter. Does anyone have experience with this muzzle device and how it should be timed?

If it's this one, then put the logo on top.



The wrench flats go at 3:00 and 9:00.

just curious on those types, does the timing really matter? Or is it PWS trying to make sure their logo is front and center?

I would think you would want the bottom 1/3 of 3 prong facing the bottom of rifle towards the ground to reduce dust signature if your an operator, if your not then any rotational position would suffice.

But if you want to advertise there product by all means show the logo on top and you will have bragging rights to boot.

IIRC the top cut (the one closest to the PWS logo) is cut longer than the other two and supposedly provides compensation for muzzle rise.

OP please let us know how the Triad works out for you.
