Air Lock Industries Suppressor

Have you also used the LS wild ones? I am mainly curious on a how long it takes to see mirage comparison.
I haven’t used that one. I have used numerous other wraps before I landed on silicone.

Just my opinion, the LS Wild looks like a fine no slip cover.

However, the owner is a friend here so there seems to be a big push for his stuff. I have found the silicone slide on covers to be better in every way than the more traditional wraps.

I haven’t used the silicon ones, but in my experience the think Cole-Tacs are the best for mitigating mirage. But the one I had on my Scythe slipped a lot (I should have gotten the retention cord). The Cole-Tacs on my Raptors don’t slip, probably due to the ribs on the Raptor. But, being thicker can cause some obscurity in the bottom of your scope.

The LS Wild ones don’t slip. But they do soak up water.

That makes me wonder about intentionally getting it wet. ultralight when using it for a shot or two, pour water on it when at the range. (unless it gets steamy and it worse than mirage?)

It’s not a big deal either way. My POI hasn’t appeared to shift from getting wet. It just soaks up water and I don’t like that for a variety of reasons. I slide it off to let it dry out when I get done hunting for the day.

So far, using the LS Wild cover, I can comfortably sustain one shot per minute with my 22” 6.5 CM. I shoot ten shots in 3-5 minutes, let it cool for about five minutes with the breach open, then shoot another ten shots.
