Looking for some heat proof suppressor covers.  What have you guys found to be the best?  Links if you have them!

I have been using a Manta sleeve for the last six months and love it.  The youtube videos are what sold me on it.  I wanted something truly heat proof and these are.  Just yesterday I had my SDN-6 hotter than hell after about fifty rounds straight but was still able to grab the can and remove it (using part of the rubber as a barrier between my thumb and the latch).  The only downsides are how difficult it would be to remove, keeps the can hot for longer, and the fact that it adds about 7oz of weight.  It looks a little odd too, I always get questions about what on earth it is.  FWIW, it was ~$60 well spent.

Still waiting on my rifle can. But I'm wondering the same thing.

I hope to find out how mine work today!  I got the Bowers Griptastic for my Specwar 556 for my SBR.  I the Rifles Only HAD for my Specwar 762 on an AR10.  I got the ColeTac Python for my YHM Ti 762 Phantom.

Aesthetically and for ease of use, I like the ColeTac.  I probably should have paid a little more for the Summit version, but this one will be strictly for the hunting rifle anyway.  I don't like the way the HAD cover tightens up, kind of a pain I think.

I bought the 7" coyote brown Griptastic to fit the Specwar 556, but it was way too long.  I should have bought the 6.5", so I had to trim it down, but that was not a problem.  I like the idea of the ridged Griptastic cover, supposedly it helps let heat escape, hopefully it will work that way.
