Default Solutions for protecting your guns from game vests

I was concerned that the brass strap rings, belt buckle and brass buttons on my Filson game vest would scratch the finish on my restored guns. I decided to take some leather and cut it so so that it could be wrapped around the aforementioned strap rings and buckle. I then sewed on some adhesive backed velcro so that the areas of concern could be covered and the wraps could be easily removed. As for the brass buttons, I took 1/8"rubber o-rings that were slightly smaller, inside diameter, as the outside diameter of the brass buttons and stretched them on. It looks great and serves as added protection. Hope this helps anyone that is also concerned with damage to the finish of their guns while hunting.
