Another vote for the Kaw Valley Linear Compensator. No muzzle rise at all, smooth and QUIET (without using a suppressor) as the sound goes forward instead of sideways.
Looks good with a regular 13" handguard/16" barrel.
We just released the Covert Comp MINI 9mm and MINI 7.62

I’ve run a 16” barrel with an A2 birdcage, a Yankee Hill Phantom, and no device. No difference in flash, recoil, or POI. Not even with +P loads. Just pick something that you like, cause it’s just for decoration.
IMHO, there is not enough volume of gas ( in a 16" ) to effectively make use of a Muzzle brake from a 9x19 cartridge.
Think along the lines of adding a brake to a .22LR.... it might help, slightly at the bench.
I know the Lantac 9MM brake I bought wasn't effective enough to justify the cost.
Careful selection of buffers and recoil springs made a bigger difference in felt recoil.
