A tad warmer than silicone but still better than grabbing a fistful of hot suppressor.Īfter the slower rate of fire on the second magazine, the cover had gotten no hotter, which is what I expected. Due to the material hanging over, it could not shift forward but rather rolled a bit around the can.Īfter 30 rounds of fire, the surface felt only slightly warmer to the touch than the silicone sleeves did. Once tightened down, the Armageddon Gear cover moved very, very little. Removal is just as easy - release the cord lock, loosen the cord, and remove. Tighten the cord down starting at the rear, and then secure things in place with the cord lock. There should be a bit of material hanging over the back edge.

It’s tight.but not crazy, fling it across the range because it won’t come off tight. You then rotate the sleeve until the non-venting top section is at 12 o’clock. Installation of the Manta sleeve involves lubing the inside of the sleeve with some hand sanitizer (provided with purchase). Priced at $70, they come in a few different colors.
Both the V1 and V2 are designed with a recessing rear and protruding front so you can stack them on longer cans but still ensure a snug fit.
