Getting a hot suppressor home from the range

[mattiooo]

Is there a safe way to leave the range with a hot suppressor? Do I have to stop using it 30 minutes before I'm going to leave?

What are you guys doing?

[Irving]

Small wooden box? Empty ammo can?

[Dave_L]

I usually try let it cool down 15 minutes or so prior to leaving. Then I'll put it in the provided pouch that it came with and put it the case with the gun. Ihaven't had any issues.

[TFOGGER]

Maybe something like a pizza delivery bag that can withstand the heat?

Options:
1) Silicone wrap.
2) Oven Mitt.
3) Wrap it in a heavy rag.
4) Put in your pocket.

They make a small towel size fabric that plumber use when they're soldering close to a wall. I believe Home Depot and Lowe's carry them. Wrap the suppressor in that when your done.

I feel like I've been too simplistic in my approach... I take off my can, letting it sit on the bench while I clean up my stuff, wait on ceasefire, and retrieve my target. Always not-hot-enough to just throw in my bag when ready to vacate the range.

Thanks for the replies, everyone.

Piss on it
Ove glove

Use your hands so it forms callouses and it won't feel as hot :P

If any one goes with option 4 please make sure to video it.

Haven't even taken possession of it yet - should be very soon.

I'm just trying to learn ahead of time. That's just what I had read surfing. That's why I asked.

I'm going to order a Mirage cover from HBAR. Read a great review on his work.

If you let the suppressor sit while packing up, it's usually cooled down enough to handle.

Personally more of a Dasani guy myself, but distilled water is what I carry in my bag for running wet and cooling down.

Silicone baking mat, ove glove, or if your nostalgic you can grab one of the gloves the Army issues to .50 cal crews for barrel swaps.

[bobbyfairbanks]

I just put my rifle can still attach in my gun bag after cleaning up never a issue

[ray1970]

Drop it over your car antenna. It will cool off on your drive home.

I have one of these and they work great! Hoser actually helped me acquire it! My saker is usually cool enough to pop into this and go in my bag after policing up brass, packing up gun and collecting targets.

There's numerous places to buy suppressor covers from. My choice and that of other forum members is
