Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary purpose of a Suppressor Cover?
The primary purpose of a Suppressor Cover is mirage mitigation, as suppressors heat up during sustained fire, they produce a mirage effect, distorting the shooter’s view through the optic. This mirage can compromise accuracy and hinder target acquisition. Armageddon Gear’s Suppressor Covers are designed with advanced materials that effectively reduce mirage, ensuring a clear and unobstructed sight picture. The Armageddon Gear Original High Temp Mirage Cover model is the most proven suppressor cover on the market and is rated for mirage mitigation on bolt-action and semi-automatic precision rifles. The Extreme Hi-Temperature model is rated for use on carbines with a high rate of fire, up to a suppressor temperature of 800 degrees F.
Does a Suppressor cover help with heat?
Yes, one of the main benefits of a suppressor cover is its ability to reduce heat. When firing multiple rounds in rapid succession, suppressors can quickly reach scorching temperatures, making them nearly impossible to touch without burning yourself. A suppressor cover acts as a heat shield, preventing accidental burns and allowing for safer handling of the firearm, especially when using AR’s and transitioning from rifle to pistol and letting the rifle hang from the sling.
Does a Suppressor Cover help protect my Suppressor?
Absolutely. Suppressors are exposed to harsh environments, including dirt, debris, and impact. A high-quality suppressor cover provides an added layer of protection against scratches, dings, and potential damage, extending the life of the suppressor and saving you from costly repairs or replacements.
