We had quite the collection of firearms today @ the range. Fletcher from AAC was nice enough to take some time and shoot with the local crew @ FOP. I think we only had one gun that wasn’t suppressed there which included 50cal Cyclops, LRM 9mm, AI-AW w/OPS, GAP w/Cyclone x2, 22-250 w/M42000, Sig with AAC, HK MP7 (with ammo) and AAC’s can, KAC NT4, and a bunch of full auto
I WANT TO SHOOT THAT ONE! Thats gotta be a fun one.
Looks like a grrreat day at the range, Where do you guys go where you can just pull up and sprall-out, leave the truck doors open, listen to music… It looks like a picnic. I wish I could do that. I have to get out of this state, its clearly cooler where you live.
Derek,
Where were you guys shooting? (State?) No one has their damn location in their profiles anymore?
I ask, because I thought AAC was located here in GA, no?
Just wondering if you guys are local to me or what?
Also, in the first couple of pics, I see some Multicam fabric in two interesting places:
On the ground, used as a mat to lay on the ground for shooting.
-AND-
Wrapped around somebodys suppressor!
In regrads to the Multicam “mat” on the ground, is this just some Multicam fabric that was purchased to be used for this purpose, OR is this a real mat that is sold to be used for this purpose? It kind of looks like a homemade job, as it kind of looks to be rather thin, eh? I’m curious, as I’ve always wanted a mat that was done up in Multicam.
Now in regards to the suppressor cover made of Multicam fabric. I’ve never seen someone have their suppressor covered like that. Probably a fire hazard if the suppressor was really hot anyhow. Why would someone cover their supporessor like that? Is this strictly for protecting the suppressor during transport, or when it’s not in use?
Thanks so much for sharing these awesome pics bro.
We are in NE Florida, Saint Augustine, FL. AAC was down for the weekend and brought the majority of what you saw in the pictures

The mat is what it seems, a very thin non padded mat to lay on the ground for whatever reason you like. Me? Because I am a pussy and the ground was wet
The suppressor cover is a tool that aides in reducing mirage that appears in your scope when looking down range. The heat from the suppressor amplifies the normal mirage even more. They aren’t designed to be used on a full auto, they can be used sparingly on semi-auto, but they were truly designed for precision rifle cans.
Both Items are made by Tony Burks of TAB Gear, his store is exclusively distributed through RiflesOnly.com, and he can make any suppressor cover for any can you’d like.
I have a mirage cover made in OD Green I got from someone making them in Canada. I cant remember who makes them but you can find their posts on the Silencertests.com forum. I think I paid $25 delivered to Georgia. the inside surface that contacts the suppressor is made of some sort of black fireproof cloth. I can do about 8 mag dumps in rapid semi-auto mode without damage to the “mirage cover”. It’s also great for putting your suppressed SBR away in a nylon carry case without melting the case. Otherwise you have to wait forever for the suppressor to cool down.
