FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The AccuWasher® Gen 2 is an upgraded version of the Precision Armament original single-shim muzzle device alignment system. It allows for precise, repeatable alignment of muzzle brakes, compensators, and suppressor mounts—eliminating the guesswork and inconsistency of peel washers and crush washers. Gen 2 features new shim sizes, thinner profiles, and adapter compatibility for broader use across different thread sizes and barrel profiles.
The Gen 2 system offers several improvements over the original:
Feature | Gen 1 | Gen 2 |
---|---|---|
Shim Sizes | 1/2” and 5/8” kits only | Now includes 1/2”, 5/8”, and 3/4” kits |
Outside Diameter (OD) | 1/2” shim: 0.750” | 1/2” shim: 0.725” (smaller for a sleeker fit) |
Shim Thickness | 5/8” shim: 0.060”-0.100” | 5/8” shim: 0.040”-0.080” (thinner for finer adjustment) |
Compatibility | Limited to fixed thread sizes | Now compatible with all common thread sizes and barrel profiles via shim adapters |
Interchangeability | 1/2” shims are compatible | 5/8” Gen 1 and Gen 2 shims are not interchangeable |
Aesthetic | Standard fit | More flush and professional finish with adapters |
Each shim is laser-marked with a series of thick and thin dashes:
- Thick dashes = 5
- Thin Dashes = 1
For example, a shim with 4 thick dashes and 1 thin dash equals shim #21.
Use the included timing chart to determine which shim number aligns your muzzle device properly.
Absolutely. Despite all the added features and compatibility improvements, Gen 2 maintains the single-shim design, which offers better alignment, accuracy, and repeatability compared to systems requiring multiple stacked shims.
