Ok I want to get a few covers for my supressors but really not sure if a full cover is necessary for what I do. What about a cover that only covers the top half of the sup. and leaves most of the bottom exposed for cooling? What do you guys think?

Re: Partial supressor covers?
Be interesting, but my "guess" would be you would have the same mirage issues as with none. But who knows, might work like a mirage shield, so who knows until you try it. Keep us all posted, because mine stays nice and hot if I am not able to slide the cover off between relays/stages.

Re: Partial supressor covers?
What do you do? I've sold thousands of suppressor covers the world over and haven't run into a situation where a half cover would be advantageous yet.
What do you plan on holding your half cover to the can with that won't be affected by the heat generated by shooting?
How will you keep the cover from spinning on the can?

Re: Partial supressor covers?
Not sure if there is a advantage or not this is the reason for the question.
The only reason I think this would be a advantage is for a bench shooter who wants to cut out the mirage but still allow the can to cool.
Was not to concerned about spinning as it will be a bench gun.
Fo holding it on was thinking of just cutting out the center section basically creating a window with material left in the front and back.

Re: Partial supressor covers?
How many rounds do you anticipate shooting at the bench in between taking a break?
Our SAS1 and SAS3 covers allow the cover to very easily be slid back on the barrel in between strings to allow the can to cool, and it's very easy to slide the cover back in place when shooting commences.
There would be quite a bit of work in constructing a cover that has a "window" in it without exposing the outer covering of the can to the hottest part of the can, that being the middle of the can.

Re: Partial supressor covers?
it makes no sense to cover part of the can when the cover is what cuts your mirage down. when you are taking a breaking from shooting pull the cover off and let it cool.
