    Default Getting a hot suppressor home from the range

    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?

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
