Re: Suppressor/Mirage covers?
I bought a tab a while back that works quite well. Has the cinch strap so its easy to slip on and off.
Re: Suppressor/Mirage covers?
Decided to finally get my first one recently from Cole-Tac (metal python). Very high quality worksmanship. Great online reviews.
You can actually choose your own combination of colors for the tube, straps, and buckles. And all the combinations look good!
The straps can really tighten down on the can, and it will hardly move when shooting. The velcro works really well, and gives a clean tight profile.
Plus you can still use promo code NFAREVIEW for a 10% discount.

Re: Suppressor/Mirage covers?
So can someone tell me what the actual purpose/benefit of these covers are? A major purpose of a can is to vent off the hot gasses from the weapon and then that heat has to go somewhere so it would usually be dissipated through cooling of the outside of the can. Wouldn't these covers seal in the heat and reduce the effectiveness of a can? Comes across as a lousy trade off for a reasonably minimal amount of "camo" but that is just my ignorance speaking as I have never used a cover on mine.

They are designed to cut the mirage effect of the hot can. Most will melt at full auto or heavy semi auto fire. More for precision shooting than battle speed.68Guy wrote:So can someone tell me what the actual purpose/benefit of these covers are?
