Overview
Built to help manage suppressor mirage, this cover is aimed at shooters who need a clearer sight picture during precision work and other controlled firing schedules. Its secure fit is designed to stay put during movement, while the adjustable cord allows for quick adjustment or removal when needed. The no-contact shell design keeps the nylon cover separated from the hot suppressor, and the product notes make clear that it is intended for bolt-action and semi-automatic precision rifles or slower to moderate use. For higher rates of fire, the manufacturer points to the Extreme Hi-Temp version instead, so this model is best matched to the right firing conditions rather than all-purpose use.

Specifications
| Long Description | The Armageddon Gear Suppressor Mirage Cover significantly reduces and delays the effects of suppressor mirage on the rifleman's ability to identify and engage his target. Highly secure design stays in place during vigorous movement yet can be adjusted or removed in seconds. Adjustable cord ensures custom fit and retention. Cover design ensures NO contact areas between nylon shell and hot suppressor. Armageddon Gear's 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. Allow your suppressor to cool to avoid damage beyond 800 degrees F, especially with Titanium suppressors. Please note that the hi-temperature cord used on all Armageddon Gear's Hi-Temp/Extreme suppressor Covers is black, regardless of the material color selected. Notes on temperature ratings and use: Your suppressor mirage cover is designed to mitigate the mirage caused by the radiant heat emitted from your suppressor as you shoot. The Original High Temp Suppressor Mirage Cover is designed solely for use on bolt-action and semi-auto precision rifles or for slow to moderate firing schedules. Through several years of observation, Armageddon Gear has found that most of the small number of cover failures we've seen have resulted from use on rapidly fired AR15 or other 5.56mm rifles or through long periods of sustained fire from 5.56mm rifles. For these higher rates of fire, the new Extreme Hi-Temp Suppressor Cover is the best choice. The Extreme Hi-Temperature Suppressor Cover mitigates mirage just like the original high temp cover but is slightly bulkier than the very trim and sleek form of Armageddon Gear's original Suppressor Mirage Cover. To avoid damage to your suppressor and your cover, you still need to allow your suppressor to cool frequently. Properly installed and used as intended, your Armageddon Gear Suppressor Mirage Cover will provide many years of trouble-free service. |

Pros

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed to mitigate suppressor mirage, but it does not eliminate the need to manage heat or cooling during use.
- The original High Temp model is intended for bolt-action and semi-auto precision rifles or slow to moderate firing schedules, so it is not the right fit for higher-rate strings of fire.
- For carbines with a high rate of fire, the Extreme Hi-Temp version is the appropriate choice, but it is described as slightly bulkier than the original trim profile.
- The hi-temperature cord is black regardless of the material color selected, which limits color matching on the finished setup.
