  • Patent number: 12613073
    Abstract: A heat retardant system for covering a barrel of a firearm is disclosed. The system comprises a tubular sleeve with innermost and outermost layers, first and second end portions each having an opening, and a fastener for securing the sleeve to the firearm. The tubular sleeve spans substantially the entire barrel, enhancing heat management. The innermost layer comprises a heat tolerant material that forms a retardant channel enveloping the barrel. Additional features include a first section on the outermost layer covering portions of the inner layer, vents for improved heat dissipation, and a rigid stabilizer to maintain the sleeve's upright position. An elastic cord fastener and a unique configuration with a cutout facilitate attachment to firearm components. This system is adaptable for various firearm designs, significantly improving heat management while maintaining barrel accessibility and safety during use.
