I am working on a few “outside the box” designs for suppressor cover. Specifically suppressor covers for hunting.

What are your biggest complaints?

What’s on your wish list for a suppressor cover?

Why would I use a cover for hunting?
True, not strictly necessary. I have gone without one at times.

If the cover weighed less than 2 ounces, would that make a difference?

Protect the suppressor from dings.
Mirage (insurance for longer shot strings when we suck).

This, I was really anti cover for years. Last fall while shooting a big magnum at coyotes I couldn't see through the mirage after two quick shots.
If you been there you know.

Maybe for me it’s cause a bare suppressor in the AZ sun starts off hot before any shots. Especially if it is dark colored.

I have your cover and really like it. Seems to be one of the best imo. If anything, on a hunting gun, i go for lightest possible, while still functioning.

Not sure Id use one hunting, but if I did it would need to be thin, light, non-absorbent, and stay put and not slide.

Im thinking a coyote tan color, out of similar material to the tent stove jack stuff, maybe sanded to reduce shine.
Just a thought of mine.

The only wrap I have is a thick one for long strings of fire. Think its Armageddon gear or similar.

If I’m at the range shooting a couple boxes, I just throw on an Armageddon gear cover for mirage…I think it weighs 2 oz.

Hunting…I cover the can with the UM Jimmy, essentially a neoprene beer can coozie. It pads it, seals it, and it slips off in half a second straight into my jacket pocket.

No complaints about this system so far…

My complaints pertain to unintentional movement/shifting and thickness. Use mine on an Omega 300, is rated for high temps and is velcro secured. Currently don’t use it for hunting, only range.

They probably make models more suitable for hunting, just haven’t looked into it.
