Stage 1 in a local match many years ago a friend of mine lost his compensator in a funny way.
It turnes out that he had a bushing barrel with a screw on comp that he had tightned a little tooo much.
So he draws, fires and fires again, but now he has twice the recoil in the gun and a VERY surpised face.... :goof:
Comp leaves the barrel in a rush and lands in the dirt a couple of feet in front of him.
After inspection the local CSI team (us) finds that the comp has bumpmarks in the backside and the shooter comfirms that he MIGHT have screwed on the comp a turn or two too much.

Lesson learned: Check that gap between the slide and comp..
Cost: A new barrel
Laughs: Many, many toghether with some friendly advice.

Cheers

"Win the match in your head and you will accept a loss in real life", there are no loosers, just winners that did a mistake
