Just got this in today. I'm extremely impressed with the construction quality and even more so with the turnaround time. Cole Tac allows you to custom order to your exact specifications, including colors for each component right down to the buckles. They also custom cut the dimensions to your specifications. Cole Tac was very responsive to my questions about sizing and I received my custom cover in 9 days from order to mailbox!

They offer a few different models. This is the Python model, which features steel buckles for greater durability and heat resistance.

I've got to get a cover for mine. I only had to lay my forearm on it one time on the bench to learn a little lesson... kind of like that lesson I learned about push mower mufflers and being careful about reaching around it.
You never give your push mower a reach around. Everybody knows that.

Well, now everybody knows that. I blame the 10mm wrench that walked away from me and stopped near the muffler. Damn chinese wrench. I'm pretty sure that one still resides in the wood line behind my Mom's barn.

Now that I'm older, I'm very happy to wait until the mower is cool before working on anything.

With a .30 cal can on the way I might look into one of these. Never really had a need with the .22


I get my 5.56 can smoking ass hot, rarely though do I get my 7.62 can hot enough to justify it.

Don't get me wrong, my 7.62 can gets hot enough to not want to touch, but nothing like my 5.56 can.

Even shooting 5.56 out of it? Is the 7.62 just that larger of a diameter that will dissipate the heat faster?

I generally only use my 7.62 can on my bolt gun or lever gun. I got it pretty damn hot on my 7.62x39 SBR but I don't shoot that thing very often.

I didn't see what they make these things out it- is it Nomex or something? Surely not nylon or something that will melt.
It's definitely not nylon, at least not the inner material. The outer is Cordura. The interior may be nomex, but I'm not 100% positive. They have a video on their site of them applying a blowtorch to it.
