I would drill a hole into the ring.. if I had the tools to do so. If only I had access to machining tools, Ill be making my own comp to fit.

Mr.Hitman: Hey thanks appreciate that!

Yeah well I went to all the major shops Dentrinity, Tokyo Model, Guns 'n'Guys, Armed Forces, even the elusive Redwolf which only opens on alternate Saturdays until 1pm.. all say I'm f**ked please buy a new slide. I'll try not to until I screw up something else. Then I'll do what they say.
heh well new slide is still cheaper than buying a PDI compensator.
You speak English very very well! What the heck?!

Another way to secure the slide is to have a thicker ring, have holes drilled maybe 2 or 3, and finding a screw which uses an allen key, I forgot what screws they are called.. Anyways, and then thread it and to tighten the ring onto the outer barrel, after that, and secure it more, use more epoxy or glue or whatever..
And then you can probably use a stock recoil spring to reduce the slide power..

Only other way is a new slide. :P
