Best suppressor covers?

Those look really nice. Very pricey - but quality comes at a cost.
Personally, I don't know why there isn't a suppressor wrap company that doesn't use a cinch system like BOA, so that you can really tighten up the suppressor wrap (and quickly loosen it for cooling), with minimal effort.
anyone used these guys? seems interesting enough, but pricey for a dive with no info

Yes, I have them on all my cans. Superior to traditional fabric-based covers for semi-autos to increase airflow and reduce the exterior temperature of the cover preventing burns. For bolt actions, I have yet to see mirage off the can, even in 80* weather at a PRS comp. Also slightly lighter than my Coletac HTP for the 7" models.anyone used these guys? seems interesting enough, but pricey for a dive with no info

Do you use the direct clamp types or the rail mounted setups? Been debating if the rail mount is worth it for minimizing disturbance to barrel harmonics/POI shift
I use the direct attach, only because the can is so far forward of the rail. I have not noticed a POI shift on either my DT, AR-15 16", or my 11.5" MCX, even with my 28" Med Palma with TBAC Ultra 7.
I assume the direct attach is the one with hex bolts that clamps to the suppressor?
If so, it sounds like it clamps on there pretty well and one can leave the cover on and unthread a direct-thread can just by grabbing the cover, right? They might have had a video on their site that demonstrates that, but the video is “private”. See here: https://modtac.us/product/suppressor-shield-in-extremis/
My suppressor covers always fall down when my gun is upright. Sorta bugs the crap out of me.

And what vent option did you go with? CQB (more vent) or Standard?
(Edit: Might be a moot point…seems like you can’t get any cover over 5.5” long in anything other than Standard vent)
according to the site they do custom setups, so it might just be you have to do a custom order.
Well, I went and ordered two after talking to Modtac. They have pretty much phased out the CQB versions (not interested anyway) and they just got some sizes in of the regular vent clamp-ons in stock (not showing on their site earlier today).
So if you want one in a hurry, call them.

while not a cover and more of a case to keep it safe in
it even plays the Indiana Jones music when you open it with dry ice fog effects still working on laser light show but it will get there . crush velvet lined lol

I think that thing should be the actual entire suppressor. I would slay dragons to see someone show up at the range with that thing hanging from their 6.5 manbun, playing music and all.while not a cover and more of a case to keep it safe in

Has anyone ever tried using some black automotive exhaust header heat wrap/tape? Seems to me like it would do the trick. It's only $15 for a 2'x50 foot roll on Amazon
@mightyhercules
You want the suppressor to cool, and header wrap keeps the heat in I believe.
No Bueno IMHO

I’m not a physicist, but any mirage abatement device would work by keeping heat in. That is how they function to limit the heating of air around and above the suppressor that induces mirage.
I’m very happy with Can Chap from our own @gebhardt02 who also makes the Scope Chaps.
Thin, sticky inside so grips the can extremely well for install/removal, perfect fit.

Our new Can Chaps are finally here! This product is a suppressor cover with a different material than we have found in any other suppressor cover on the market. The inner layer in direct contact with the suppressor is very tacky and when tightened onto the suppressor completely eliminates...

This is the one I'm trying next.
I have a Bowers, but it appears they don't sell them anymore. They were dirt cheap too.
