Medium vs Heavy - Choosing the right suppressor cover.

Choosing the right suppressor cover isn’t about preference, it’s about how you run your rifle. Here’s how to get it right.

MEDIUM SUPPRESSOR COVER:

Best for:

  • Pistols/ semi-auto use

  • Precision shooting

  • Lower rates of fire

Typical setups:

  • 9mm Handguns

  • ~1.38” diameter suppressors

When to choose Medium:

  • Controlled shooting

  • Slower firing cadence

  • Lightweight, low-profile setups

If you’re not running multiple mags back-to-back, Medium is likely the right choice.

HEAVY SUPPRESSOR COVER:

Best for:

  • Rifles/ fill-auto use

  • PCCs and carbines

  • High round count/ sustained fire

Typical setups:

  • 9mm subguns

  • .223/ .308 rifles

  • ~1.5” diameter suppressors

When to choose Heavy:

  • Running multiple mags consecutively

  • Training envrionments

  • Hard-use rifles

If you’re pushing your setup, go Heavy.
