Looking for a moderator cover

[rocketdogbert]

Unfortunately, Praesidia no longer seem to make a cover for my mod, Wildcat Predator 8 (50x200mm). I need something heat proof a well as protecting it from knocks.
Any suggestions?
Cheers
John

Hi. I'm in the same boat. Found this guy on flea-bay who makes them to order. Cordura outer in a selection of camo's, Nomex liner £33. Not ordered one yet as I'm waiting for my mod

Not cheap but they are very good.

Metal Python Suppressor cover - Cole-TAC Europe

The most popular cover from Cole-TAC. This is truly the best of both worlds. This cover will not slip or shift around on your can. The only suppressor cover that you can design. Don’t get burned again.

Dark coloured vet wrap. Can be removed. Dried and put back on a few times if needed.

No good, it needs to stop heat haze in summer at Bisley, thanks though

I have a Praesidia mod cover that I bought for my Wildcat mod, will measure it and get back to you, it might work for you.

Sorry, its a bit longer than your after, 250 x 50 mm
Regards Martin.

Vet wrap.

Vet wrap.

Won’t work, see my reply above. Thanks though

I’ve tested expensive, cool looking ones with buckles and/or Velcro against vetwrap.

Absolutely no discernible difference.

I mean, other than the look…

On a hot summers day at Bisley?

Not cheap but really like mine. I use the Python

Don’t see why Bisley would be any different to anywhere else?

A range is a range.

As for the temperature of the day - the heat haze will be worst when the temperature difference is bigger and humidity is high. So likely to be at its worst on cool damp day in Scotland…

Ultimately, when you’re shooting big strings, your mod is going to get hot. A few microns of fabric is not going do much. The differences between a £200 bespoke tacticool cover, some vet wrap or an old sock are going to be a minimal.

Until someone makes water cooled mod covers, the choice is not about functionality, it’s about looks.

I’ve seen water cooled barrel coolers lol

An acquaintance of mine once said :

“50% of shooting is looking cool. The other 50% is knowing you look cool”
